Help sorting and library maintenance.
I've been reading for a while and I can't find any best practices in this realm.
Ok, so using iTunes 7.5.0.20 (Win) and classic iPod - I'm trying to maintain the library by adding info for a particular Genre, for example, in the filesystem. I'm then expecing that info to get picked up by iTunes on the next sync, but I dont see it happening.
Of course, it seems to work if I start in iTunes, add info to a column, Genre for example, then it seems to get updated in the filesystem fine. This is not the prefered method, because iTunes has visibility into the song's location on the filesystem ONLY one song at a time. So let's say I have a folder on my filesystem called "New Age" which contains 1000 songs and I want to add them to Genre called "New Age". I can't do it in the filesystem, and I can't see all the songs in the filesytem folder from iTunes (this is a feature in Windows media player "Location", so you can see in the table where your song lives on the filesystem, if you've embedded song info in the directory structure (c:\mp3\rock\doobies\). What's more, is even if I could, I can't sort columns in the device node in iTunes - it's locked on "Artist" and it wont move off, so even if I could sync the filesystem with iTunes, how can I know the information made it to the iPod itself?
If I had to norrow this down to one question, I guess I'd ask how does one update a file's properties (i.e. change the spelling of Artist name "Stink" to "Sting" on the file system, then have that changed file update in the iPod, so the iPod correctly displays artist "Sting"?
Otherwise, can someone point me to bulk file updates best practices, so that the iPod gets those same changes?
TIA

There is very little OO here.
The first thing you need is a PhoneBookEntry (or similarly named) class that holds the values of ONE of your entries. Then when you load your file in you will populate a List of instances of these PhoneBookEntries.
Then when you have done that a whole lot of things, including searching, sorting and displaying become much much easier.
So why don't you start by coming up with a PhoneBookEntry or ContactEntry or something like that class? If you get stuck come back and we'll see what we can do.

Help sorting iTunes library to show deleted songs.
Ever since loading iTunes 7, I find that songs are being randomly deleted from my library. I have them backed up on CD, but it's getting to be a ROYAL pain, especially since iTunes seems to be so random in what it's deleting.
Is there some way to organize the library to show what tunes it's newly deleted? Clicking on the first column (where the exclamation points are) does nothing. Clicking on "date modified" only shows what I've done, not iTunes.

You have to make sure the exHD is plugged in and running BEFORE starting itunes, or it will revert back to the C: drive.
You also need to make sure Windows is always using the same exact drive letter for the exHD. For instance, if you plug a digital camera in, Windows might change your exHD letter from F: to G: and itunes will still be looking at F:
Use Windows Disk Management to permanently assign the drive letter

Using Display tag library - sorting and Paging
I have generated a grid using this tag library which has number of in built features. Out of which on is grid sorting and pagination. But this sorts the grid in one page only, not complete grid. Does any one have solution for this? I am trying to get the source code which does this. If any one has solution then please help me..
Thanks!In this case you have to do external sorting insted of defalutsorting provided by dispaly Tag Library. find sample code for External Sorting.
Follow the Steps:
<display:table name="testList" {color:#ff0000}sort="external"{color} defaultsort="1" id="empTable">
<display:column property="id" title="ID" sortable="true" {color:#ff0000}sortName="id"{color} />
<display:column property="firstName" sortable="true" title="First Name" />
<display:column property="lastName" sortable="true" title="Last Name" />
<display:column property="address" sortable="true" title="Email Address"/>
</display:table>
To determine the request parameter name for column(like ID) sorting you can do :
String studenid = request.getParameter((new ParamEncoder("empTable")).encodeParameterName(TableTagParameters.PARAMETER_SORT))
fire a query in DAO Class using request parameter to get sorted list and map a resultset to table.
Thanks,

Hi everybody, I am in Turkey on a long assignment, I need help solving a big problem on my macbook pro os 10.9.3. The other week my wife visited some website and now we have a redirect virus of some sort, and every other time when we click on a link or anywhere on the page we are redirected to this casino web site, https://casino.7bets10.com/tr/?from=hy9yKXD43jSC-8Oxbw4femNd7ZgqdRLk-dHJpeG9uaXR l. Its the same whether on Chrome or Safari. Does anyone have a solution, thank you!
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I can not get my itunes to sort my library in alphabetical order by artist?? Nor can I get the listing to be numbered...ie...1...2...3...4...5 etc.....Can anyone help?? It used to be able to alphabetize my list correctly before I downloaded the 11.0.1 or 11.0.5 version of itunes?????
How are you viewing your library? In Song view or Album View?
If in Album view pull down View > Show View Options and select Sort by: Artist, then: (whichever choice you want here).
If in Song view I like to see the album artwork so pull down View > Show View Options and select "show album artwork" and close the small window. Then click on the column that contains the artwork and sort it by Artist. -

Am very sorry this is long, the file should be sorted after it is loaded and I have that, You can make up some data with last ane, first name, tel and email to show me an example. Thanks alot
JosephHi Monica, Thanks for you patience with me.
I have tried writing a selection sort method but am having some errors. Could you kindly have a lookand correct me please.
This is the code i wrote
public static void selectionSort(Comparable [] data)
String strFirstName;
String strLastName;
Comparable temp;
for(int i = 0; i < lastName.length; i++)
lastName = index;
for (int j = i; j < lastName.length; j++)
if (lastName[j].compareTo(lastName) < 0)
lastName[j] = lastName[i];
//Swap the string values
temp = lastName[j];
lastName[j] = lastName[i];
lastName[i] = temp;
As you requested, below are 4 error messages I had
E:\coursework2.java:101: cannot find symbol

lastName = index;
^
E:\coursework2.java:107: cannot find symbol

In iTunes podcasts were sorted in the library alphabetically. In Version 1.2.1, there is no ability to sort and podcasts (not episodes) are duplicated. Can you sort the Podcasts in the library section? How do you remove or consolidate duplicates?

Aperture Help needed: Adjustment panel is blank, although metadata and library panels normal. Thumbnails appear normal but when RAW (CR2) file is loaded, it appears with a dark blue cast, and does not load into the adjustment panel, and is not adjustable. Suggestions please
You may need to register your camera with the the launch service database again, see this post by Alan Roseman: Re: Aperture 3 preview of raw file greenish
There is a "typo" in the command given in the link above, so read also the following posts on how to correctly enter the command and how the fix is supposed to work
Good luck.
Post back, if this does not help.

What r the trns code for maintenance view, help view and projection view
hi all
what r the transaction code for maintenance view, help view and projection view
can anyone tell me how to create maitenance, help and projection view.
with an example
regs
hari<b>What is the Different Types and Usage of Views
The followings are different types of views:</b>
- <b>Database View (SE11)</b>
Database views are implement an inner join, that is, only records of the primary table (selected via the join operation) for which the corresponding records of the secondary tables also exist are fetched. Inconsistencies between primary and secondary table could, therefore, lead to a reduced selection set.
In database views, the join conditions can be formulated using equality relationships between any base fields. In the other types of view, they must be taken from existing foreign keys. That is, tables can only be collected in a maintenance or help view if they are linked to one another via foreign keys.
- <b>Help View ( SE54)</b>
Help views are used to output additional information when the online help system is called.
When the F4 button is pressed for a screen field, a check is first made on whether a matchcode is defined for this field. If this is not the case, the help view is displayed in which the check table of the field is the primary table. Thus, for each table no more than one help view can be created, that is, a table can only be primary table in at most one help view.
-<b> Projection View (SE11)</b>
Projection views are used to suppress or mask certain fields in a table (projection), thus minimizing the number of interfaces. This means that only the data that is actually required is exchanged when the database is accessed.
A projection view can draw upon only one table. Selection conditions cannot be specified for projection views.
<b>- Maintenance View ( SE54 )</b>
Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.
reward points if it is usefull...

The songs on my Ipod and library are gone! Help me Please!
I already tried recreating the library thing and it did not help me and i'm really desperate to have them restored! If you know how to fix this please tell me. I would really appreciate any kind of help you can offer to me.
If your library was "Magically" wiped out, You should scan your system with antivirus and a malware program like Ewido http://www.ewido.com or your personal adware/spyware scanner.
If you have recreated the library and it still pulls nothing in iTunes, Id say the library got corrupt and you will have to add it all back by either going to file>add folder to library or deleting a hidden pref file in windows to get iTunes to auto search your whole system for all your media files like songs and video.
Did you recently update your iTunes? -
Sort field in maintenance order
Hello;
I want to make sort field in maintenance order as a mandatory field. But if I make it as a mandatory field, system still allows me to save the order as long as I have not clicked 'Location' tab. So there is no positive control over this field. May I know, how do I achieve this? I have even tried to put order type as the influencing field but it does not help.
Points assured.
Regards
HemantHello Hemant,
access to the SAP service marketplace via www.service.sap.com to create an OSS message. Choose link "product errors". Therefore you need an OSS user and you have to be authorized to create OSS messages.
To create an user-exit, you have to go to transaction CMOD. There you have to create a project and assign the enhancement you want to use (I'm not really sure, but I think IWO10009 is the correct one in your case - you can search the user-exits via transaction SMOD - search for IWO*).
After this you have to implement your coding and then you have to activate the project.
The implementation of the user-exit should be done by an ABAP developer.
By the way - I've had a look at the OSS. There's note 768576.
Reason and Prerequisites
The problem is caused by a missing function.
Influences set via field selection will only become effective if a screen with the corresponding fields is processed. You must also refer to the documentation defined in the corresponding Customizing area. For the location & account assignment data, no additional check is (such as with the general order header data) is realised during the saving.
Prerequisite
Via field selection you declared fields of the location & account assignment data as mandatory field, and no screen that contains these fields was passed.
Solution
By means of the example code, you must implement a corresponding mandatory field check via customer enhancement IWO10009 at the time of the order backup.
1. Create subroutine Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW in program SAPMILA0. It would be best if you create an own include ZMILA0F1 for this so that you will not have any unnecessary expenditure for future Support Packages (via Transaction SE80).
FORM Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_HEADER'
IMPORTING
CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_ILOA'
EXPORTING
CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD
IMPORTING
ILOA_WA = ILOA.
ENDFORM. "Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW
2. Create the following source code in customer enhancement IWO10009:
STATICS: XTFAWF LIKE TFAWF OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
tables: tfawf.
DATA: wa_screen LIKE screen.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: 'A'.
perform Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW(SAPMILA0).
if xtfawf[] is initial.
SELECT * FROM TFAWF INTO TABLE XTFAWF
WHERE PROG = 'SAPMILA0'.
endif.
LOOP AT XTFAWF WHERE CUST_M = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'FIELD_SELECTION_INFLUENCE'
EXPORTING
dynprogruppe = '7 '
mode = 'C'
modulpool = 'SAPMILA0'
fieldname = XTFAWF-MFELD
IMPORTING
input = wa_screen-input
output = wa_screen-output
active = wa_screen-active
required = wa_screen-required
intensified = wa_screen-intensified
invisible = wa_screen-invisible
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
if wa_screen-required = 1.
clear lv_mfeld.
lv_mfeld = 'CAUFVD_IMP-'.
case XTFAWF-MFELD.
when 'ILOA-AUFNR'.
lv_mfeld+11 = 'IAUFNR'.
when 'ILOA-KOKRS'.
lv_mfeld+11 = 'IKOKRS'.
when 'ILOA-BUKRS'.
lv_mfeld+11 = 'IBUKRS'.
when 'ILOA-GSBER'.
lv_mfeld+11 = 'IGSBER'.
when 'RILA0-ARBPL'.
lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld6.
when others.
lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld5.
endcase.
ASSIGN (lv_mfeld) TO IS INITIAL.
Message E461(IW)
with 'Mussfelder der Standort&Kontierungsdaten füllen'.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
endif.
endloop.
endif.
3. Activate the changes
Correspondingly you can implement this solution also for the order release, for example, via customer enhancement IWO10002.
Bear in mind that this is a source code proposal. It might be useful or necessary to adjust this source code to special applications.
Best regards
Stephan

Im really sorry if this has been posted about before but I just cannot find it anywhere on the discussion boards.
Yesterday I purchased some items from the itunes store, I havent upgraded to the latest version of itunes as I had heard people having trouble with it, as I have in the past, I dont know if this makes a difference. Once the items that I had purchased had been uploaded into my library I connected my ipod to download the tracks onto it. Once I connected my ipod it started to upload the items but when it had finished, it had only uploaded the purchased items I had just bought and deleted the entire contents of my ipod and the same with my library, it has been totally wiped apart from the purchased items that I have just bought.
I would be eternally grateful if someone could help me out with retreiving all my 'lost' songs/tv/video etc, Im a bit of a technical numpty and have found that hitting it is just not working There is probably a simple way of sorting it out. Ive had my ipod for at least 6 years and as you can imagine would absolutely hate for everything to be deleted.
Thanks in advance.I am still having no luck with this and its driving me round the bend. I still cant seem to get any of my library back onto my ipod plus when I try to sync my ipod all I keep getting is this message
"podcasts on the ipod cannot be synced because all of the podcasts selected for syncing no longer exist"
then nothing else happens. But as my ipod and library seem to have been wiped why is there a message coming up about podcasts as these arn't in my library nor on my ipod anymore?
This is so confusing! -
Do you know of a simple way of sorting and deleting duplicate photos on aperture
Hi , Do you know of a simple way of sorting and then deleting duplicate photos on Apeture.
Thanks PhilThere is no simple way. The best strategy really is to take care not to import duplicates.
What is your Aperture 3 version?
What kind of duplicates are you asking about?
If you imported exactly the same file multiple times, sorting your images in the Finder by filename or creation date will display them side by side.
If you have diferently sized versions of the same image, edited versions, or versions converted to a different format, then sorting by creation date will not help; you might try to sort by capture date, but that may fail, if there were different imezone settings when you imported the images.
You could also sort be filename, if you did not rename the images on import.
If you renamed your versions, adjusted the date, modified the file properties by writing to the original files, try to sort by other tages - faces, location, keywords.
There are some helper applications to scan your Aperture library and tag duplicates: (I have not really tested any of them)
Duplicate Annihilator (Mac) - Download good to detect accidentally imported thumbnails
http://photosweeper.en.softonic.com/mac : This app can actually detect edited duplicates based on statistic measures and histogram similarity.

I have a mid 2009 13 inch unibody 2.53GHz MacBook Pro. I'm finding that it doesn't run as quickly as it used to.
A genius in the Apple store suggested that I replace my optical drive with an SSD, however only use the SSD for OSX, applications, system and library. Keep all documents, pictures, music etc on the current hard drive.
I would be grateful if someone could help me with:
1) installing OSX on the SSD without copying across data from the current hard drive
2) transferring applications, system and library folders across to the SSD so that they still function
3) changing my settings so that OSX reads the home folder from the current hard drive, as well as all the applications' data (documents, music etc...)
However, I would like to run iMovie, with all events etc solely from the SSD to speed up the process of editing movies.
If anyone could help with this, it would be much appreciated.If you got the data transfer cable with your SSD, the procedure should be pretty simple - and there should be step-by-step instructions in the box. You're simply going to remove the bottom case of your computer (using a Phillips #00 screwdriver), take out the two screws in the bracket holding the hard drive into place (using same screwdriver), remove the drive and (use a Torx 6 screwdriver) remove the four screws that hold the hard drive in place. Then put in the SSD and reassemble the machine.
Then you'll plug up the old hard drive by using the SATA to USB cable and use the option key to boot from the old drive. I don't know what data transfer software Crucial provides, but I would recommend formatting the SSD using Disk Utility from your old drive ("Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition) and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your old drive to your new SSD (see this user tip for cloning - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4122). You needn't worry about getting an enclosure since you have the data transfer cable and you don't want to use your old hard drive.
There are a number of videos on YouTube that take you step-by-step through this procedure - many specific to Crucial SSDs and their data transfer kit - do a little searching there if you're unsure of how to procede.
