Finder Folder defaults, not the same defaults when using Office Mac2011
I might be being a touch simple here - i've got my file formats sorted nicely in Finder (excuse my simple terms here, new to iMac, love it though..) and the default view opens each time without issue.
What I want now is the same default view when I open, save, save as etc anything out of Office Mac2011. Currently files, documents and folders are all over the shop. I can't find anything obvious like there is in Finder to re-sort the default views etc.
Anyone help at all...?
Ta!
Not possible. The open and save dialog boxes don't reflect what you've set as view options for Finder windows.

i tried everything in this article, but still have the same problem when using Rapidweaver software. NOT with other software. I am converting my iWeb site to Rapidweaver, whenever there is a calmer period in my office. I have 16 Gb RAM on my NEW iMac and have Parallels desktop, mail, safari, iWeb and Rapidweaver running simultanious.
I never have the problem if i don't use Rapidweaver, but after i have added several pages to Rapidweaver, the problem begins. my iMac won't start up. the only thing that works is re-installing Macos OS X 10.8. i tried even whiping the completeharddrive, and reinstalling with a complete new user, the same problem.
I had it on my previous iMac also, and bought a new one because i thought the problem was in the iMac first. i hadn't noticed it only happens with using rapidweaver.
i sent my complete rapidweaver project to the programmers from rapidweaver at Realmacsoftware, but they couldnt reproduce my problem, there macs started up without any problem.
i deleted all the rapidweaver addons and extra stacks, and started a complete new project.
saterday i had the problem again, after adding about 5 new pages to my rapidweaver site.
i think i have reinstalled Macos OS X 10.8.2 20 or 30 times by now
does anyone have a sollution?Type '''about:support''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
Scroll down almost to the bottom of that listing and see if you have '''user.js Preferences''' just above the '''''Graphics''''' category.
If you do have that, click on '''user.js file''' in this sentence. <br />
''Your profile folder contains a user.js file, which includes preferences that were not created by Firefox.''
Does that "different homepage" appear in that user.js file? -

How do you plot multiple curves on the same graph when using a while loop?
I am writing a program that will plot the IV Output chracterisitcs curves for a MOSFET transistor. I have two sweep variables Vg and Vd. For each Vg valve selected, Vd is swept from its start to stop voltage creating a graph for that Vg valve. Both of the sweeps are done using while loops. Ideally I would like to display all of the Vg plots on the same graph while having the ability to do real-time graphing. Can anyone help me figure this problem out? I have attached my program. Thanks!!

outputfin2.vi 165 KBHi Tammy & Tica T,
As far as I see it - this thread is a very bad version of already existing bad version......
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=127857
I expected, that an Applications Engineer from NI knows something about a Transistor and how an Output characteristic looks like !! Take a look to a typical Transistor Datasheet ( e.g. n-channel MOSFET) - you will see, that there is no relation of ID vs Time like in your example ( values vs time ) but IDrain vs VDrain at different VGate's ( no relation to Mr. Bill Gates ).
Find attached a vi, that in general does what you need - drawing of curves vs x-axis (XY-graph in use) - in test_sweep.zip. And that you geet an impression, how it might be done ...... dynamic Output characteristic of a Transistor with Standard Equipment of a Lab ( Scope + Generator + Power Supply ) find in addition a Frontpanel - picture. One of the interesting points here is - the self-heating effect; visible on ch3 of scope - 5µs Pulse is already a very long time...... This measurement was done in order to compare with our own Transistors.........
Hope this helps a little bit to understand, what we are talking about.
Regards
Werner

Understanding Linux/Unix/Arch - not the same thing as using it
Hi there Archers!
I've been using Linux for almost a year now. I started out pretty rough, with Fedora - and uninstalled it pretty quickly as it wasn't the easiest OS to start with, and I didn't have that extra time to learn it by then. I then proceeded with Ubuntu and Mint, until I decided at the beginning of May 2013 to become an Archer/Archie. I'm proud of this decision. (y)
Using Linux and understanding it as I have learned are two entirely different thing, oh so different. I hope this isn't too much to ask for, but I would very much like the advice of some experienced users - which I presume I will find here, easily:
I want to understand Unix/Linux better, maybe not the whole Arch concept - since The Arch Way isn't that hard to understand, at least not the concept. What shall I read and do? I know there is much information out there - but I have no desire to read things that you guys don't find helpful, and I am looking for some pro-tips.
Thanks.drcouzelis wrote:

Which aspect of Unix / Linux do you want to understand better?
Options include:
Networking
Servers
System administration (user accounts, permissions)
Software development
Package management
Differences between distributions / operating systems
Kernel compiling
The Linux Standard Base (LSB)
Shared libraries
Version control software
Embedded linux
The init process, boot manager, and dual booting
File systems
And other stuff.
I was thinking a basic mix of everthing above, basically. Like: What are libraries? How does the system administration work? How does the kernel work? Etc. I mean - the answers are often not so complicated to understand on a basic level. My problem is, I don't know what questions to ask.
I think I'm looking for some "tasks" which don't require a lot of time, I don't really HAVE the need to do extremely much on my Arch - but I would love to be ABLE to do more.

Yes, you are right - that is what I meant.

Forcing the opendoc call to open in the same page when using web elements
Hi,
I'm using the WE Submit web element to send an opendoc call to BOE, I'm calling the same report and re-running with new search criteria.
Is there a way to force the report to open in the same viewer as opposed to opening a new window?
Thanks in advance,
Angela.hello Angela,
i assume that you're using a WETargetPath function along with the submit. normally the submit function should then open the report in the same window.
for example, if your report has an ID of 12134, then the following code should open the same report in the same window
stringvar path:= WETargetPath ("rpt", "ID", "12134", "");
WESubmit ("S1", "Button", "GO", path, '')
you can also use the last parameter in the WETargetPath to specify a location...using "Same" will force opening in the same window, while "New" will force a new window.
stringvar path:= WETargetPath ("rpt", "ID", "12134", "weWindow=Same");
WESubmit ("S1", "Button", "GO", path, '')
If you've downloaded the latest version of webelements from [here|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/webelements] there's a "submit methods" report in the download that you can publish and have a look at the various options.
cheers,

How to I enable other users on the same machine to use Office products?
My husband has the system set up so the kids accounts are secured by NetNanny.
We noticed tonight that the kids can't use Word, Excel or Powerpoint from their accounts.
You can only see it in my account. You can't see it in my husband's Administrator account.
How do we change this? We'd like all users to be able to use the Office products.
Thanks,
VikkiI figured it out. The other users had only read access to the programs. Had to change it to read/write.

GetClientID not the same with request map in a dataTable
Hi,
I have a dataTable with multiple rows of same input text box (which has a required="true" validation attribute), the generated id in request map is something like (because it's repeating in a dataTable)
formname:_id0:0:firstname
formname:_id0:0:lastname
but the .getClientId() method of UIComponet is NOT the same! When I try to getClientID, for the same componet (recusively gong the tree), I get
formname:_id0:firsntame
formname:_id0:lastname
how do I retreive the correct id? or why is it not getting the right client ID?
The reason I'm manually going through the tree is because I need to do some custom logic of checking each componet in the page, see if it's required, if it is, I'm going to do add custom required messge for them (all this is implemented in a phaseListener)
thanks.Hi,
thanks for replying.
Basically, I have need to customize error message for validation, so I adopted the code here by implmenting a phaseListener.
http://www.jroller.com/comments/ksevindik/Weblog/customizing_jsf_required_field_messages
which in turn derived from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/masterj2ee/j2ee_wk7.html
If take a look at the code above, in the validateValue() method, it's checking for component .submittedValue properties. This normally works for forms by itself.... but when the form field are repeated inside a dataTable, the
inputComponent.getSubmittedValue() becomes null.
I was confused, so I tried to output the clientID of the inputComponent by
inputComponent.getClientID(),
Only then, i noticed that the ID is not the same as the ID in requestMap, mabye that's why inputComponent.getSubmittedValue() is null.
Let me rephrase the question, how do I access the text box value in any row of a dataTable? (Note, the value has NOT been updated into the model yet because I'm trying to get the value in validation phase)
Thanks again. REALLY appreicate it. -
I'd copied some pictures from a PC to a folder in Finder in my new iMac. The 'Date Created' in iMac is not the same as the 'Date Created' in the PC. Why? Is there a way to fix that?
View Menu -> Sort Photos is a good way to start.
Some organising possibilities in iPhoto:
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 50k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me. -
Preview: In a group of PDF files in the same window, going to the next or a previous PDF file displays the bottom of PDF page by default, not the top of the PDF page. How do you change this? In Mac OS 10.9 and previous, going to the next or previous PDF file displays the top of the PDF by default. Is there a way to change this back? When I go to the next or previous PDF file, I want to first view the top of the page, not the bottom. This really doesn't make any sense. Any help? Thanks!

I'm trying to reinstall Mavericks on used Macbook Pro. When I log in to my Apple ID, it says it was not the same ID used to purchase Mountain Lion. I need to change user/admin as a lot of the folders and apps are in Chinese!
The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
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, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
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 some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into 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.
Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, 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, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot 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.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous 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.
If the previous 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 linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support. -
Can Reader pick up the Default Page Size of a printer that is not the Windows Default Printer?
We have a web based application that generates PDF documents via Crystal Reports.
We are using Adobe Reader 8
The PDF pages are displayed within an Internet Explorer window where the the users then print the document.
The application is designed so the user only gets one chance to print the document (ie they cant come back and change printer settings if they happen to print the document out incorrectly)
The document needs to be printed on A3 paper, full duplex.
We have a printer set-up decidated to the printing of the documents generated by this application. The default page size of this printer is set of A3.
If we set this dedicated printer as the Windows Default Printer we have no problems at all. The default page size (A3) is picked up and the document is printed correctly.
If any other printer is set as the Windows Default Printer (eg one that has a default page size of A4), the users must obviously select the correct printer from the Print Dialogue Box -however when the user selects the dedicated A3 printer, the page size remains as A4 (page size of the Windows Default Printer). This means the user must remember to change the paper size to A3 each time.
Out users find IT a struggle at the best of times - anything that makes the process simpler is very welcomed!
Is there a way to ensure the default page size of the printer is respected when that printer is not the Windows Default Printer?
Thanks!No.
