How can I update the QuickLook database?

About 10 days ago my dock in Leopard crashed and I could not find it without restarting. Now I see in the console at startup:
Dock[150] [QL ERROR] Generator database update takes too long... we will use what we currently have
Since I have updated the Info.plist on my .tex files to conform to public.plain-text I would like quicklook to take note of it, but nothing I do will force it to take effect. On the command line qlmanage -r shows "resetting all generators" but qlmanage -m ends with the statement "generators change detected: NO". Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

This is by no means a complete answer. I still get the error messages in the console. However, I now have a partial answer to my question. After I log in, I run Cocktail 4.0.1 for Leopard, Select System then Databases. Then Rebuild Launch Services database with Restore default file associations enabled. About three quarters of the way through executing /System/Library/ScriptingAdditions/StandardAdditions.osax/Contents/MacOS/uid the .tex files lose the icon when selected, show the label "TEX" and can now be viewed with a touch of the space bar. What a pleasure. To the poster who recommends staying with Tiger, I say I never want to give up the pleasure of having Quick Look a spacebar away for all my files.
Unfortunately, when I logout, restart or shutdown, once again, none of the org.tug.tex files are registered as public.plain-text and only the icon appears. To regain Quick Look capability I have to Rebuild Launch Services database. It only takes a few minutes, but I would like to automate the process somehow at login, but I have no idea how to do this. I will probably stay logged in for long periods of time, hoping that an update in the future will resolve this.

How can I update the project varibles in OBPM 10.3

Hi All,
OBPM version : 10.3.2 (weblogic Enterprise version)
How can I update the project variables from the External process?
I per my knowledge we use termination wait activity and notify the same from the external process. I am successfully do this but I am facing the performance issue with this and sometimes even data sources pool is getting exhausted.
Could you please tell me is there any other way to update the project variables?
Thanks in advance.

I do not disagree with Mark about using Message Waits to update project variables. I'm right in the middle of logic right now that is doing just that.
If you have thousands (or in your case millions) of instances to update all at once, you might want to also want to consider another approach. I obviously do not know your process and sure you've thought of this, but you could use a database to store this same information that you are currently using project variables for. You'd need a table that has the instance's unique id (e.g. case id, loan number, claim number) as the primary key and then have columns to store the information you are currently storing in project variables.
Taking this approach, you'd be updating the milliions of rows in the database very quickly. You could still have project variables in your process, but they would be set at the beginning of a Screenflow or in an Automatic activity using a SELECT statement against the database table using the unique id of the instance as the key.

How can I update the thumbnails in the slide panel when a slide has been changed?

When the text in a slide has been changed, how can you update the thumbnail in the slide panel to reflect this change?
We translated slides, but the slides in the slide panel are still in English.
Thanks for your help.

the slides should update automatically as you type
are you using a theme you created yourself, or one you have added for this show?
when you play the show, does the slides show correctly? If they are OK you could still show the presentation.
also what Mac are you using and what graphic crd is installed?

How can we update the last synchronization date and time..on SUP in sccm 2012 R2

Hi,

"Wakeup for a polling cycle " and " Wakeupby inbox drop" and "Wakeup by SCF change"

You'll probably have to call CSS on this one as this not normal by any means. The messages you noted above are completely normal but if that's all you are seeing then there's an issue.
Have you reviewed wcm.log and wsusctrl.log?

How can I update the firmware all at once

I'm a tech support in a school, approximately our school has over 500 laptops, how can I update the firmware on all laptops at once?

Apple Configurator is the software you want - and it's free from Apple. However, I'm dubious that firmware can be updated all at once.

When i try to update software for my 3rd Gen iPod Touch to version 5 i get the message 'This version of iTunes (9.2.1) is the current version'. My Mac OS is 10.4.11. How can I update the iPod software?

When i try to update the software for my 3rd Gen iPod Touch to version 5 i get the message 'This version of iTunes (9.2.1) is the current version'. My Mac OS is 10.4.11. How can I update the iPod software?

The later iOSs requires at least OSX 10.5.8 for the Mac. You need iTunes 10.5 but 10.4.11 only goes to 9.x.. 10.5.8 is a paid upgrade.
Are you sure that you have a 3G iPod? If it is 8 or 16 GB it is a 2G and those can only go to 4.2.1 (also requires 10.5.8 or later). A 32 GB can be either 2G or 3G. To identify yours:

How can i update the itunes in my external hard drive?

When i try to update the itunes on my external hard drive, it creates a new application in my computers hard drive. How can i update the one on my external hard drive?

there's no advantage to having the application on your external drive, you should leave it in your applications folder on your internal drive. if you insist on changing the app's location, you'll always have to then copy the app by hand to the external drive

How can I reuse the BC4J database connection?

How can I reuse the BC4J database connection?
I want to use the application module connection without opening another in a custom code. At this level I canât access de ADF code, thatâs why I canât get the DBConnection from the application module.
Now, I have a âdata-sources.xmlâ in my project and the application module is configured to access the database from this xml file.

I found the solution in other Forum. I worked ok.
Here the code:
If the Connections-Navigator connection is DBConnection1, the corresponding datasource is jdbc/DBConnection1DS.
1. Create a JSP page.
2. In the web.xml of the JSP add
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/DBConnection1DS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
3. In the JSP page obtain a connection with the datasource.
InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/DBConnection1DS");
java.sql.Connection conn = ds.getConnection();

How can I update the "basic" Adobe Flash Player that is in my Samsung Smart TV?

How can I update the "basic" Adobe Flash Player that is in my Samsung Smart TV?

Any update would come from Samsung, but in low-margin products like TVs, it's pretty uncommon for OEMs to provide ongoing maintenance over a large span of years. You may find that you'll get a better experience from a dedicated streaming box like ChromeCast/Roku/etc.

I have an iPad that I want to update to IOS 5.1. I have several apps that each were installed using a different iTunes ID. How can I update the IOS without losing the apps?

I have an iPad that I want to update to IOS 5.1. I have several apps that each were installed using a different iTunes ID. How can I update the IOS without losing the apps?

To update your phone requires using the latest version of iTunes, on your computer, as well as Internet access. The update to iOS 5.0 or higher is an erase/restore deal, so you not only have to make sure all of the content, currently on your phone, is on your computer and accessible, you need to update iTunes first, have Internet access, then update your phone. There is no way around this fact. You could go to an Apple store or use another computer, but you run the risk of losing all of your data it you do that.

Am trying to update my IOS to the compatible version of my iCloud backup (6.1.4) but the update will take me to 7.02. How can I update the IOS to the compatible version 6.1.4?

You cannot. However, your iCloud backup will be available to you in the current release of iOS (7.0.2).

How Can I Update the coils on Quantum PLC...

Dear Sir,
I am in the process of configuring Lookout4.5 build9 with Quantum PLC.
I am trying to write two O/p coils of the PLC using two latchgate
objects. I am using two different set of push buttons for latching
and unlatching the two latchgates. After this I have directly
connected the two latchgates to the O/P coils of Modbus object
in modbus ethernet mode of communication.
Now I am using the PLC simulator s/w of PLC to watch the status.
When I start the first pump (coil1) and Stop the second(coil2),
after sometime it is seen that the position is reversed such
that the coil1 is off and coil2 is On. Though here in Lookout
I see that the latchgate 1 is ON and latchgate2 is OFF.
I am
unable to understand this change over in the status of the coil.
I have read one of the documents on NI website (Document ID:15QA2P9C
"Why can't I update the coils on Quantum PLC without reading them
back in?" Report dated:01/27/98). I think my problem is similar
to that.
So please tell me a proper method of updating the coils on Quantum
PLC or how can I update the coils by reading them back ?
OR is there any problem regarding the modbus.cbx file, if so please
send me the latest modbus.cbx for Lookout4.5
Waiting for your earliest response...
Yours Truly,

The KnowledgeBase that you refered to is 3-1/2 years old, and the problem in the modbus driver is long-since fixed. Their are no other known issues with the Modbus driver.
The method you are using to update the coil sounds appropriate. What I would first verify is that Lookout is not sending a command to toggle the coil.
1) Write the simplest possible process that shows the problem (ie 2 pushbuttons, the modbus object, 1 latchgate).
2) Create a "modbus.ini" file in your Lookout directory. Place the following in the modbus.ini file:
[ethernet]
DiagnosticPath=c:\
3) Run your program until the problem occurs. If it does, find the "modbus1" file created in the C:\ directory. This file contains a log of all modbus communication that moved back and forth. Check the
log to see if Lookout sent a command to the PLC. If no command was sent, then the change occurred internal to the PLC software.
