Help pulling off data from HD

Trying to recover data from old iMac CRT HD.
Problematic old iMac CRT System 9.2, Multimedia version. CD not functioning to burn data, OS freezes when attempting to copy off large amounts of data.
I tried booting this as FIREWIRE DRIVE, connecting with firewire 400 to System 10.4.11 MacBook firewire 400, (holding "T" rebooting), yet it just reboots/restarts -but not as Firewire drive.
Can I use a USP FLASH DRIVE in USP/1 port to pull out data from old Mac HD, or will System 9.2 require driver, will this work?
OR can I attach firewire 400 external formatted with System 10.4.x to this old iMac with System 9.2.x?
OR... can System 9.2.x publish/share to Macbook 10.4.11?
What do you suggest? I hate to go through added expense to have old HD physically removed, and pull data that way. THANKS< Mark

This is worrisome. You may have a problem with the hard drive. I suggest you try Disk First Aid.

this should work. You may need the latest firmware to be installed. I seem to recall that the target disk mode was added via a firmware update. Do you have a firmware password?
You need to figure out the level of your firmware before installing 10.2 or greater. ( The PC name for firmware is BIOS. ) Installing 10.2 with a down level firmware will most likely make your iMac unusable and difficult to fix.
Figuring out what level of firmware you have?
1) Mac OS 9.x or 8.x, you need to use the Apple System Profiler.
Apple -> Apple System Profiler
2) Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.
Power on your iMac while holding down commandoption+of
The first output line contains the firmware level. Mine reads:
Apple PowerMac4,1 4.1.9f1 BootRom built on 09/14/01 at 13.18.04
Copyright 1994-2001 Apple Computer Inc.
On my machine, I have 4.1.9f1.
What firmware do you need?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
For a slot loading iMac, this article indicates that you need to be running 9.1 or later version of Mac OS Classic.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75130
"The iMac Firmware Update 4.1.9 will only run on iMac computers with lot-loading CD or DVD drives running Mac OS 9.1 or later from a local drive. If you are using Mac OS X you must boot from a local Mac OS 9.1 or later writeable partition (not a CD, or network disk) prior to following the update instructions."
You can download the Mac OS 9 updates from the Apple site.

Can I use a USP FLASH DRIVE in USP/1 port to pull out data from old Mac HD, or will System 9.2 require driver, will this work?
This worked for me. the driver is included in the extension folder. I was not able to format the flash drive with 9.2 drive utility. I suggest you format the flash drive to Mac OS standard.
OR can I attach firewire 400 external formatted with System 10.4.x to this old iMac with System 9.2.x?
You would need to have the latest firmware installed. otherwise, problems with the video display would occur.
OR... can System 9.2.x publish/share to Macbook 10.4.11?
you can set up an FTP server client.
I wasn't able to get apple's share working with Mac OS X 10.4.

I was able to upload files by using an FTP server. I used PureFTPd Manager 1.7 with Mac OS X 10.4. this download does include the server software. I did have to create a FTP user. I had to boot the classic machine after configuring.
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/networking_security/pureftpdmanager.html
I used fetch:
http://fetchsoftworks.com/downloads.html
I used version 3. Previously, I used version 4.
You can use any web browser to download from Mac OS X when you turn on Web sharing. This is how I downloaded fetch.

  • Need help pulling correct data from MAS90

    I am trying to pull data from payroll and am not getting the correct amounts.  Part of the information is for the current pay period and the other information is for year to date data.  The current information is coming from one file and the year to date from another file.  I can get the correct information to pull if I insert only the current period fields or year to date fields, but when I have both in the report, I don't get the correct amounts to pull.  I asssume this has to do with the linking of the fields.  I have played with this and can't get it to work.
    Thank you,

  • Cs3 Indesign problem - Pulling incorrect data from an .xlsm file.. please help

    Hello,
    I am hoping someone can provide me some answers here, as this problem has stumped me for a couple of days now.
    I am using Adobe Indesign Cs3 - and I have been pulling excel tables into the .indd file with no problem. However, I had to upragde my version of 2003 excel, to the newer 2007 version, which inlcluded having to update the base excel files to .xlsm from their previous .xls versions.
    I did not change anything else with the files.. simply used 'save as' to update the files.
    After the upgrade, I relinked all instances of tables for the .indd file, and all seemed to be fine. Except when I look at anything that was pulled in as a date, is now pulling in 4 years and one day behind what it is written as in the .xlsm file it is being pulled from.
    It doesnt make any sense to me how Indesign can be pulling in figures differently than how they are written in the Excel file it is pulling the data from.
    Hopefully this makes sense, and someone will be able to help me here
    Thanks
    J

    Aye.. the reason I have had to upgrade the excel files is because of the column limit in the .xls format. 2003 excel files will only allow columns up until the IV limit.. and my data now goes past that.
    Since Indesign seems to have a huge problem trying to draw excel data/tables from anything other than 1 worksheet in an excel file, Ive had to try and create an .xlsx or .xlsm file to give me the extra columns I need for my data.
    As for changing my source files.. that would be fine. Ive tried a few things with the dates, but nothing I've tried has worked so far. It reeks of a 1904 date system problem, becuase of the exact 4 years and one day off that indesign is pulling in (if you are familar with the 1904 date setting in excel, you will undertsand what Im saying) but why indesign is pulling in different data than what is visible in the source file is beyond me.
    Example, the source file has a date: July 15, 2010. Indesign is pulling in July 14, 2006.
    It is really bizzare.

    If you don't want to use iCloud, simply don't activate it.

  • Pull the data from database.

    Hi EveryBody,
                     I have a requirement in universe if the end user will select the date from (1/8/14 to 10/8/14) then pull the data from the database. but when the end user select the data more than 10 days(e.g 1/8/14 to 15/8/14 etc...) then no need to pull the data from database.
    how will write the filter in the universe?
    how will achieve this? please help me.
    Thank you.

    Hi  ,
    I am assuming you are giving prompt for start date and end date  respectively start_date and end_date.
    please see the below work around. (below is pseudo code)
    1. create one dummy objects as
    case when @prompt(end_date) - @prompt(start_date) <= 10 then = 1 end
    Remember text used in dummy object should be same as you use it for you date prompts
    2. pull this objects in where clause along with your date prompts as
    dummy_object = 1 
    It will work as below :=
    your report will be prompted for start_date and end_date .
    Same values will be passed to dummy objects.
    When dummy object will be executed , it will check for  end_date-start_date <=10 or not.
    If it is less then 10 then query will executed else it will come out as where  clause is not satisfied.
    Hope this answers your question :-).

  • Pull the data from legacy System into report and display with SAP data

    Hi Friends,
    My requirement is-
    Create report by processing data from SAP tables and prepare output.And Before displaying the output, I have to pull the data from non-sap system which is readymade (It will come as flat file with similar fields as Report structure has) and finally display the records from both SAP and Legacy System by filtering duplicates.

    Steps:-
    Define the file path on selection screen:-
      Selection screen data
        select-options   (s_)
          parameters     (p_)
          radio buttons  (r_)
          checkboxes     (x_)
          pushbuttons    (b_)
    SELECTION-SCREEN  BEGIN OF BLOCK block1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-f01.
    parameter:    p_file    type text_512 obligatory.
    Start-of-selection.
      data : l_fname type string. " File Name
      l_fname = p_file .
      call function 'GUI_UPLOAD'
        exporting
          filename                = l_fname
          filetype                = 'ASC'
          has_field_separator     = '#'
        tables
          data_tab                = lt_data
        exceptions
          file_open_error         = 1
          file_read_error         = 2
          no_batch                = 3
          gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4
          invalid_type            = 5
          no_authority            = 6
          unknown_error           = 7
          bad_data_format         = 8
          header_not_allowed      = 9
          separator_not_allowed   = 10
          header_too_long         = 11
          unknown_dp_error        = 12
          access_denied           = 13
          dp_out_of_memory        = 14
          disk_full               = 15
          dp_timeout              = 16
          others                  = 17.
      if sy-subrc <> 0.
        message e000 with 'Unable to upload file from the PC'(t13).
      endif.
    lt_data is of same structure as the fields in the file.
    For filtering duplicates:-
    delete adjacent duplicates from lt_data.
    Now display the records using either ALV or using write statements.
    You can display the records in any of the way you want.

    Hi...
    In the admin workbench open the modeling tab and select Source Systems
    In the right pane, right-click on Source Systems and select Create…
    A dialog requires you to define the type of source system. Select “Database System”
    Enter a description for the source system
    Once you accept the definition of the source system, you have to provide the following information, save and back out:
    DBMS: ORA (Oracle)
    User Name: Your UID
    DB password: Your pwd
    Conn. Info: sql*net string
    Select “Permanent connection” if this is the case
    If everything went well, you should see the new source system. When you do a right-click and ask for the DataSource overview, the first time you execute it you will be prompted to generate the application hierarchy
    In order to test connectivity, right-click on the source system and select “Select Database Tables”
    The following screen shows up. Click on the execute button…
    any tables or views that you have access through your UID
    Select a table or view and click on “Edit DataSource”
    To test data retrieval, click on “Display table contents”
    Designate the application component, determine the type of DataSource (Text, Master data, or Transaction data) then generate the DataSource

  • Is there anyway to pull the data from an iPhone/iTunes backup file?

    Is there anyway to pull the data from an iPhone/iTunes backup file so it can be read and imported into a DROID phone. Have a customer with a dead iPhone and they went out and purchased a DROID as a replacement and would like all their contacts to be imported into the DRIOD. Is there any software out there that can do this?

    Here is one that can at least get at the data: iPhone Backup Extractor
    There may well be others of better value. Google is your friend.
    You'll probably need to do something with the data you can extract, like add it to Outlook, rather than being able to send it directly to the driod.

    Thanks!

    Not without the Sync (recovery) key that was used to set up that account.
    The sync key is used locally to encrypt the data before uploading and without this key the data can be considered as lost.

    Hello, I am trying to have a program that allows a user to input shopping items into the program andhave that input go to a .txt file called shoppinglist, then after the user is finished, he/she can type no to stop entering items to the list and the program will then pull all the info entered to the .txt file and output it to the screen, creating a shooping list for the user. My problem is that I am not quite sure how to output the data from the .txt file to the screen. Here is my code.

    OP, you need to sit down and think about the exact order you want to do things in, and rewrite your code in a logical straightforward manner. It looks like you just threw some code in hoping it would work, instead of coding deliberately. I'm not insulting you or anything, I know you're new to Java. I'm just trying to give you some advice. Look at your code, and ask yourself why the following line of code appears before you've even written anything to your file:
    line = outputItems.readLine();
