Has the SDN forum search facility changed?

When in any of the forums I used to be able to search in relation to the forum area that I was in. However, that option seems to have gone and I only have the option shown in the top right corner to search the all forums. For example, when in the CRM WebUI forum and search for 'Remove button from toolbar' I get loads of ALV/ABAP postings from another forum area.
There used to be another search option for the particular forum you were in. Am I alone in not being able to see this?.
I noticed that this sudenly happened about a month back.

I'll try the solution suggest above, but I should not have to.
One of the prerequsites steps is for us to check SDN before raising a support call. The way the site works now makes this a little harder, or at least more effort.
Regards to all.
I'm sure they'll get it sorted, eventually, especially as we are possibly raising a few more support calls now as many people can't be bothered to go through the extra effort to try and find a solution using SDN. So I guess it's in SAP's favour to get this working ASAP.

Where has the support forums search function gone?

I'd like to search for my question before posting it to see if it's answered already, but the search box up top right on the header bar searches the whole **** apple. Am I missing something? I'd be keen to just search iWeb '08.
Cheers!

Improved forum search facility?

Hi,
is there any chance that the search facility can be improved for this forum?
I'm a pl/sql - forms developer who is trying to move to JDeveloper ADF - UIX (and hopefully soon, ADF Faces)
Having an advanced option where we can write more selective search criteria would be a great bonus e.g. ("tree" AND ("UIX" OR "Faces")).
Also, is it necessary to return a hit for every occurence of the search criteria within one thread? Would it not be more effective to simply display the thread heading once indicating that your search criteria returned a hit 1 or more times within this thread?
Unless of course these options are available and I just can't find them.
This aside, thanks for all the help and code snippets available on this site. It's been a big help over the past few months.
Regards
Mark

Has the FTP Root Directory specification changed in CS6?

I recently upgraded from CS5.5 to CS6 and it appears that the method of specifying the root directory for the remote server has changed. For example I had a root file specification of /htdocs/milehighmgc/ that worked perfectly in CS5.5 both in the Site Manager and when I connected to the server from the Files Panel. After upgrading to CS6 it sttill would connect from the Site Manager but when I tried to connect from the Files Panel I got an error message that said "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to the host." I was able to get it to go by adding another / to the root folder definition so that it read //htdocs/milehighmgc/.
Has anyone out there seen this? Is there a proper syntax that I am not aware of after using this stuff for 3 years?

No, it hasn't changed, and I've never seen a double-slash at the beginning of the path, either. How odd.

Has the way FCPX synchronizes clips changed recently? FCPX no longer syncing in background

(I am using FCP 10.1.3) I just stared syncing clips for my latest project to day and have met an unrecognizable process/workflow. It would seem that fcpx is no longer syncing in background? And quite frankly I don’t get it and it is really slowing me down.
What I am expecting to happen:
1. I select my video and audio file
2. right click
3. click sync clips
4. New compound clip is created in event and progress of syncing is shown in the background tasks window/wheel.
5. Once I have synced clips in a scene I search "sync" and check them
What is happening instead:
1. I select the clips I want to sync
2. Right click
3. Select sync clips
4. A dialogue box asking where I would like these new compound clips to be stored and what they should be named. (Thats cool I guess, except I am fine with the default and clicking ok adds another step to my workflow)
5. I click ok. FCP greets me with a progress bar, which prevents me from doing any other work.
6. Once the progress bar is done FCPX removes me from my smart folder or any search to the top level of the event I am in and selects the new compound clip. (This could be convenient in some cases, except I am trying to synchronies around 600 clips.)
Is this new in some update in the last few months? Or did I forget something about how I used to do it that made it faster? Is there something I am missing about this new setup that would enhance my workflow? This is currently looking fightingly laborious and slow, any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thank you very much, Russ H. It sounds like i'm approaching this tool the wrong way. i have not understood the purpose of the Event window and have intentionally glazed over it. Guess i need to do some research....
Is it unusual that ALL of the files did not lose the link? Once i connected the external drive and copied the iphoto library onto it, i deleted it from my imac to create space. It's backed up to both Time Capsule (via time machine) and external drive (copied). When FCPX choked, i copied it back to the imac, deleted FCPX and re-installed. But around 40% of source clips are still present.

Has the official Photoshop CS6 release changed from the beta version?

That's it really. Are there any substantial differences or changes in the official release?

It should look the same to the users. No big new features were added, just some bug fixes.

Has the Calendar share backup process changed?

I have been using the following apple process for exporting a calendar from icloud for a while but it now results in a file not found error. Does anybody know if there is a new process?
iCloud.com Calendar
This method of backing up starts with publishing a calendar that you can then download to your computer. If your calendar is already on your computer, skip to the OS X or Windows instructions.
Go to iCloud Calendar at icloud.com/calendar and sign in using your iCloud Apple ID and password.
Publicly share a calendar.
Select and copy the URL (web address) from that shared calendar and paste it to the address field in your browser; do not press Enter or Return yet.
Change "webcal" to "http", and then press Enter.
An ICS file will download to your default downloads location. The calendar can be added to a calendar client like iCal on Mac or Outlook on a Windows PC.
Once the download completes, unpublish the shared calendar.

Hello Vickfromtx,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The following resource will instruct you on how to share a calendar with others.
On an iPad (with iOS 6.x), tap "Calendars" in the top left corner. Tap the blue arrow to the right of the calendar you wish to share, then choose "Shared with: Add person…"
iCloud: Share a calendar with others

Has the discover double cash back changed your lineup?

so with the double cash back promo i no longer use my 1.5% cash back NFCU cashRewards because it doesn't reward me as much now. has this new promo made you SD any cards?

For me it definitely has not. DC is still better for everyday purchases because you get the second 1% as soon as you pay. You don't have to wait for a year to get it, unlike Discover. To me, the non universal acceptance of Discover means it is only good for the rotating categories and Discover Deals. For everything else, your best bet is to use a different card.Exactly ^^^^^ I don't have Double Cash (BK7 still reporting) but I use Barclays Rewards MC for 2% rewards on gas, groceries & utilities, and Quicksilver 1.5% for most other purchases, I'm not going to wait a year for another 1% from Discover first year double cash back. I use Discover for Discover Dealss or current quarter 5%. I did a nice purchase at HomeDepot.com for 5% through the Discover Deals portal + 5% for current qtr home improvement. Now waiting a year for another 5% or 10% is definately worth the wait.

Why has the /usr/ucb/ps behavior changed?

/usr/ucb/ps -auxww should return the long command returned from the process list.
Something appears to have changed the behavior so that only the owner of the process or root can see the long command.
Anyone else gets the response truncated to 80 chars.
Why did it change?

Security concerns and probably some internal changes in access.
The "long" name is only stored in the process itself. Normally access to the process is only available to a privilged user (owner or root). Such users should see the old behavior.
Otherwise you'll have to use sudo or make 'ps' setuid. 'pargs' will give the same information and should be subject to the same limitations.
# /usr/ucb/ps ww 743
PID TT S TIME COMMAND
743 ? S 0:00 sendmail: accepting connections
# pargs 743

Has the behavior of 'run script' changed in Snow Leopard?

These work fine:
tell application "Safari"
return URL of front document
end tell
tell application "Safari"
set longURL to URL of front document
return longURL
end tell
This does not:
set getFrontmostURLCommand to "URL of front document"
tell application "Safari"
set longURL to run script getFrontmostURLCommand
end tell
return longURL
Why? It looks like a script interpretation error but I can't figure out what's wrong.
The error returned is:
error "Safari got an error: Can’t get URL of document 1." number -1728 from "URL of front document"

I see. Is there a way to make the application variable? I'm writing a function because getFrontmostURLCommand works with a couple of different browsers and I want it to be run conditionally based on the user's browser. Something like this:
set defaultBrowser to GetDefaultWebBrowser()
on GetDefaultWebBrowser()
set _scpt to "export VERSIONERPERL_PREFER_32BIT=yes; " & -
"perl -MMac::InternetConfig -le " & -
"'print +(GetICHelper \"http\")[1]'"
return do shell script _scpt
end GetDefaultWebBrowser
on defaultGetFrontmostURLCommand(defaultBrowserApplication)
tell application defaultBrowserApplication to set longURL to URL of front document
end defaultGetFrontmostURLCommand
on caminoGetFrontmostURLCommand()
tell application "Camino" to set longURL to URL of current tab of browser window 1
end caminoGetFrontmostURLCommand
if defaultBrowser is in {"Safari", "WebKit", "Opera"} then
defaultGetFrontmostURLCommand(defaultBrowser)
else if defaultBrowser is "Camino" then
caminoGetFrontmostURLCommand()
end if
set the clipboard to longURL

New version of Safari 6 has lost the toolbar search facility.

I have just downloaded the latest Safari V6.0 but the Google search window is no longer on the toolbar.
I used View/Customise Toolbar to open a window which appears allow changes to the toolbar, but drag and drop does not work for the Address and Search facility.

If after clicking on an address from the drop down search window you want to go back to the list you were presented with is that possible? I end up having to do a new search and start from scratch from my homepage when I really want to just click through some of the options I originally got from my search.

Some contacts are missing, but I can find them with the search facility

Hello,
I don't know when and how it happened (maybe when I updated to 4.0), but suddenly 75% or more of my contacts disappeared from the iPhone. There is an old back-up copy in iTunes, but it is completely outdated.
The funny thing is that if I do a serach for themissing contacts in teh Search facility of the iPhone, I find them.
Note: Since I upgraded to 4.0, all my contacts are grouped in something called "All" (that did not exist before).
Just for the record, I'm using an iPhone 3GS.
Is there any way to bring back the missing contacts (which are there, somewhere, in the iPhone, because I can find them when I do a search) into the list of contacts?
Thanks a lot,
Daniel

Couldn't it be that the iPhone has created a group called "All Contacts" that only contains "some" of the contacts? In that case, where would the other contacts be? If I create a new group, it will be empty. So I don't see how would moving contacts from teh "ALl Contacts" group to the new empty group could help.
Another problem is that at first I had only the contacts I had imported from a previous cell phone. Later on, when I thought I was making a backup of these contacts with iTunes, it imported all the info from my Outlook Contacts, 95% of which I did not want in my iPhone. But anyways, that happened long before this problem (not being able to access to all the contacts from the iPhone's Phone application and having to look for them with the iPhone's search facility).

Logical AND not working in the forum search box

Logical AND of search terms does not seem to be working in the MSDN forum search box. Example: I go to the Project Customization and Program forum and type the word
subproject
in the search box. I get a lot of hits. So now I try to reduce the number of hits by typing
subproject AND read
Surprisingly, I now get MORE hits than before. The same thing happens if I enter
subproject & read
Do the MSDN forums not support the standard logical AND combinations of search terms? If they do support these combinations, what is the syntax?

Cheers, you're welcome.
There's a thread going in the Suggestions forum with plenty more requests for updates to the search tool. You may want to add your voice there too:

Make the Forum Search Tool useful

The current Forum Search Tool is nearly useless. Please add the following features to make it a functional tool:
1. Logical operators - i.e. allow the following searches: cow AND chicken, cow OR chicken, cow NOT chicken (or -chicken)
2. Quoted text to search for exact phrases - i.e. allow the following search: "my chicken says moo"
3. Results with date ranges - i.e. allow the following search: weird chicken, Results before 04/01/2012 or after 04/01/10 or between 04/01/2010 and 04/01/2012
4. Mix it up! "My chicken says moo" AND "purple chicken feed" -cow, results after 12/23/2012
5. Search in one forum only - i.e. allow the following search: "chicken says moo" ONLY in the "Farm Animal Behavior" forum
6. Search ONLY in posts (answers and/or questions) made by a particular user - i.e. allow the following search - "purple chicken feed" posted by user "Farmer Brown" ONLY
7. Do NOT include variations of words that you "think" might be "helpful". Right now a search for the word "running" yields results that contain the following words: running, run, runs. Weeding through all the useless
"helpful" results is a huge waste of time and makes it difficult in the extreme to actually find "relevant" results. HINT: There might be an actual REASON why we want to search for "running" and
NOT "run" or "runs".
8. Please make the default operator AND instead of OR when more than one search word is used. Adding more terms to a search tool should produce FEWER, MORE REFINED RESULTS instead of MORE, IRRELEVANT RESULTS. Very few people ever want
to search on a single word only. This is especially true in a technical reference environment!
9. Sometimes I WANT a word spelled exactly as I typed it. If I get results that I do not want because I misspelled a word, I can just retype the search. If you FORCE me to use your spelling, this makes my search completely useless. Please
give us MORE options rather than less!
10. Remove search result highlighting. We don't need the words we just searched for being blasted at us in highlighted bold.
NOTE: If there are any other requests for the search tool, post them as replies and I'll add them to this list.
Please do not read this sentence. Please ignore the previous sentence.

Hi,
i have posted many question but now i want to search a particular post by searching this forum but i found search is not finding in my thread rather it is searching keyword in all thread. so guide me how to search my posted question only in this
forum? who can help. please develop a powerful search for msdn forum. thanks
Searching in one forum is currently possible, you just need to make sure that you only have a single forum selected in the left rail:
This walkthrough is a bit out of date now, but it should still be helpful for selecting only a single forum:
