HELP How to rescue data from a HD with only the Terminal utility working

I can no longer access the hard disk on a 2008 unibody Mac Book after an failed OS upgrade (?). Running the original OS 10.5.5 from the grey CD-ROM that came with the device and using the "Terminal" utility, I find all data in their place and within the correct structure.
I tried to make an image of the HD or to copy the files to the external disc using the Hard Disk utility, but all attempts have produced an "operation not possible" message. Target mode will not work, as the device has no firewire connection implemented.
How can I access the files (I know they are there, I can see them...) and e. g. copy them to an external disc or rescue them with an other method?
PLEASE HELP ME
Thank you, Martin
PS Please don't tell me that experienced users will always have backups of their files: It is my wife's device and that's exactly what I have been telling her for years. Still, it's my wife...

Click here and choose 10.5 from the menu for usage instructions. Installing the OS on an external drive is done the same way as doing it on the internal drive, but it needs to be formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).

How to edit data from an IDOC with errors and reprocess it

Hi,
We are working with SAP XI for communicate with an external systems by files (external) to IDOCS (SAP R/3).
Sometimes we need to edit the data from an inbound IDOC, because the external system generates wrong information and that can't be processed directly.
We had seen posts like:
But we wanna to do it with no ABAP editor.
¿Can we change the data from the IDOC in other way (transaction) and reprocess it?
We tried with /WE05, pushing EDIT button, but can't edit the data from the IDOC.
Thanks in advance for your help
Regards,
Federico Martin

Keep Looking at forums i founded:
change idoc data
To change the Inbound IDoc,
1)Go to WE05/WE02, enter the Inbound IDoc number and Execute.
2)Double Click on the segment (Page Icon) where you want to change the Data.
3)In the Screen 'Display data record for IDoc' , Go to menu 'Data record' and click on 'Display - > Change'. Then it display a popup information 'Changes to the IDoc are written to the database' , then press enter .
To Process the Edited Inbound Idoc , execute the program 'RBDAGAIE' in SE38 and enter the IDoc number.
Thanks

How to Retrieve Data From Web Service with Optional Arguments

This should be a simple one. I have a web service that
returns a list of books. There are 3 optional arguments that can be
passed to this (ex. book type, author, id) to filter this list. Do
I still need to use the <mx:request> tags if I am not going
to pass any parameters to the web service?
When I look at the services browser in Flex, it says "unable
to get meta data for CFC". However, if I remove the arguments from
the CFC and then call the service again, all my data now appears.
What's the best way to appoach this?
Thanks in advance

I have a similar application. What I have done is create one
argument in my CFC, with a type of "struct". Then, in the Flex
Application, I create an Object (Associative Array), and pass this
to the CFC as that one argument.
Here is the ActionScript:
// Create the variable to be passed to the WebService
[Bindable]
private var object:Object = new Object();
Then in another function, you create the Object, based on
specified values - perhaps from ComboBox selections:
object.bookType = comboBox1.selectedItem["bookType"];
object.author = comboBox2.selectedItem["author"];
object.id = comboBox3.selectedItem["id"];
Then you pass that one argument in your <mx:request>:
<mx:WebService id="getBooks" wsdl"
http://server.com/service.wsdl"
showBusyCursor="true"
fault="alert(event.fault.faultstring)">
<mx:operation name="sBooks">
<mx:request>
<args>{object}</args>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
</mx:WebService>
Your CFC might look like this:
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction method="sBooks">
<cfargument name="args" type="struct">
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Then you can worry about validating the values passed to the
CFC in the CFC function. That way, you could send an empty struct
if you wanted, and the CFC would not throw an exception.
Hope that helps.

How to import data from CSV file with columns separated by semicolon?

I migrate database from MS SQL 2008 to ORACLE 11g
I export data to CSV file from MS SQL
then I try to import it to Oracle
several tables goes fine using Import data option in the SQL Developer
Standard CSV files with data separated by comma were imported.
chars, date (with format string), and integer data are imported via import wizard without problems
the problems were when I try to import table with noninteger numbers with modal part separated by comma not by dot
comma is the standard separator for columns in CSV file
so I must change the standard separator to semicolon
then the import wizard have problem to correct recognize the columns data because it use only standard CSV comma separator :-/
In SQL Developer 1.5.3 Tools -> Preferences -> Migration -> Data Move Options
I change "End of Column Delimiter" to ; but it doens't work
Is this possible to change the standard column separator for import data wizzard in SQL Developer 1.5.3?
Or maybe someone know how to import data in SQL Developer 1.5.3 from CSV when CSV colunn separator is set to semicolon?

A new preference has been added to customize the import delimiter in main code line. This should be available as part of future release.

Roger,
I don't know about simple way to load data from file into a table using button from your application,
Maybe some piece of PL/SQL code with UTL_FILE or DBMS_LOB, or you can try to upload file to database using Apex "File browse" item, and then do some processing with DBMS_LOB... but it will require some work...
Maybe someone else could advice with some simple method I don't know...
However loading files using Apex Load Utility is quite easy.
You can use something like this to load data to views created on remote tables:
CREATE TABLE local_tmp_table AS SELECT * FROM view_on_remote_table WHERE 1=0;
--load data from file to created table using Apex Load utility
INSERT INTO view_on_remote_table SELECT * FROM local_tmp_table;
COMMIT;
DROP local_tmp_table;Or without views:
CREATE TABLE local_tmp_table AS SELECT * FROM remote_table@dblink WHERE 1=0;
--load data from file to created table using Apex Load utility
INSERT INTO remote_table@dblink SELECT * FROM local_tmp_table;
DROP local_tmp_table;Regards

How Variant Configuraton data from Sales Order stored in the database

Hi,
I understand that the "variant configuration" data (chosen values for each characteristics assigned to material) from a sales order is stored separately with reference of an object in SAP.
Please let me know how SAP stores such data -source in the database tables.
This is required to draw a report of these charateristics values for various sales orders (Transactional data).
I also understand that there are function modules to retrieve this data, but the function modules are unable to retrieve data as accurately as the VA03 program.
Thank you for your advice.
Regards,
Hemant

Hi ,
I do not know what a reference charactersitcs is,but there are all independant characeristics in terms of their values.
A guess it is because the VC data is changed after the sales order is created, the updated VC data is displayed properly only in VA02 or VA03 but other function modules fail to display the updated VC data.
I understand there is a relationship of instance -between sales order object and VC data object-which we need to update and then see the latest data.
Please let me know if anyone has debgged VA03 to know how the standard SAP program retrieves VC data in a sales order.
Thank you,
Hemant
