How do I change the cashe drive?

WinXP SP3, Firefox 17.0. Pentium 4: 1 CPU w/hyperthreading @ 2GHZ, 1.5GB RAM
Firefox is installed on c: (plenty of empty disk space)
Drive E: is a 4GB SSD which is mostly empty. (Actually a flash drive on an INTERNAL USB 2.0 port, so it is NOT removable. I don't care if multiple read/writes wear it out - it is a cashe drive, not for any kind of permanent storage.)
I want to set the Cashe to E: for better performance

Hi,
You can try creating [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.disk.parent_directory browser.cache.disk.parent_directory] (string), and setting the appropriate path (E:) as the value in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config].

How can I change the default driver to OracleXADataSource in JDeveloper

Hello,
How can I change the default oracle driver: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver to oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource in JDeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.0.2, Build JDEVADF_MAIN.BOXER_GENERIC_090328.0229.5205.
If I modify the file connections.xml from jdeveloper\system\system11.1.1.0.31.52.05\o.jdevimpl.rescat2\connections in the sense that I change the driver class, then in JDeveloper when I test my connection I have this problem: Test failed: oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource cannot be cast to java.sql.Driver
Why do I need this XA version of the oracle driver? Well I tried, from a book to reproduce the model of an application: entities, stateless and stateful session beans, mdb, web services and a client to test one part of the model.
And because of the JMS server I need an XA driver.
I deployed to the integrated wls 10.3 and when I test my client, if I use the default driver for the connection the an error message appears tell me either to emulate two-phase commit or to use XA driver.
My application works very well, if I configured in the console of the integrated wls 10.3 a datasource with the same name as my ide/application connection that has for the Driver Class Name: oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource in the Connection Pool tab.
Thank you.

Open DIsk Utility and in the toolbar select Disk Image. The file selector will open and you'll have to do three things: 1) just as with any file, name it and point the file selector to where you want it to be saved, 2) near the bottom you'll see name - type iWork 2013 and 3) below that select the image size. Click on size, choose custom and type 1500 MB then click on the Create button.
Some time will pass and then you'll see an external disk pop up on your desktop and/or the Finder window sidebar. Drag the three programs into it and eject it like any other external disk. Now delete the programs from your applications window.
Where ever it was you pointed the file selector to you'll see the file you created. Double click on it and the disk image will mount again.

How do I change the hard drive that my ipod touch syncs to on a windows 7 pc

I have Windows 7 software on my pc. I have a ipod touch 64 gb and I don't have the space to sync it to my primary drive but I do on my secondary drive.
How do I get the files to sync to my secondary drive instead so I can update to newer software and restore my music/videos/contacts

Go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced and change the location of the iTunes medic folder to the external HD. You will then have to import the library items into the new library.

How do I change the install drive default for Creative Cloud Suite? I have a 64 gb SSD drive as dri

I bought another 128 GB SSD drive just for the Adobe applications. I can't figure how to change the download destination as it download or before it installs. What am I missing here?

I am sorry Scottcommercialrealtor I missed the fact you were installing Creative Cloud, we have had a lot of traffic with the release of CS6 and Creative Cloud, you can only customize the install location for Creative Cloud. You can do so by clicking on your name in the Adobe Application Manager and selecting preferences. The install files will have to be downloaded to your OS volume but you can choose to install many of the components of the applications on a separate drive. The shared components though will also need to be installed on your OS volume.
SSD solutions I would honestly recommend having your OS and Apps installed on the same drive so you can maximize your performance. You can then use a standard hard drive for your documents, videos, and images. You mentioned that you purchased a 128 gig SSD. You might consider cloning the 64 gig drive over to the 128 and then having your OS and Apps installed on the same drive.

How can I change the hard drive location of the iCloud Drive?

I am using a SSD for my boot drive, but it's space is limited.
So I would like to relocate the iCloud Drive to one of my internal HDs, but I see no option to do this.
Let's hope Apple would make such an obvious option available.
I don't want to change the location of my entire Home directory, as that would slow down my access to cache files, etc...
I had one suggestion of using the terminal with an "ln -s" command to create a soft link. However, it appears the iCloud Drive is store in ~/Library/Mobile Documents. If I remove this directory or any subdirectory, they are automatically recreated, I assume by some sort of background process.
Does anybody know if this is possible, and how to accomplish it?
Thanks.

How to use an SSD with your HDD
If you are going to use an SSD as a boot drive together with your existing HDD as the "data" drive, here's what you can do.
After installing the SSD you will need to partition and format the SSD using Disk Utility. Then, install OS X on the SSD. After OS X has been installed boot from the SSD. Use Startup Disk preferences to set the SSD as the startup volume.
Open Users & Groups preferences. Click on the lock icon and authenticate. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on your user account listing in the sidebar and select Advanced Options from the context menu. You will see a field labeled "Home dir:" At the right end you will see a Change button. Click on it. In the file dialog locate the Home folder now located on the HDD (HDD/Users/account_name/.) Select the folder, click on Open button. Restart the computer as directed. When the computer boots up it will now be using the Home folder located on the HDD.
Another more technical method involving the Terminal and aliases is discussed in depth here: Using OS X with an SSD plus HDD setup - Matt Gemmell. This is my preferred approach because I can select which of the Home's folders I want on the HDD and which I don't want. For example, I like to keep the Documents and Library folders on the SSD because I access their content frequently.
Be sure you retain the fully bootable system on your HDD in case you ever need it.

How do I change the default drive downloads are saved to?

because my c SSD is full

'''You can check these in about:config entries documentation'''
*browser.download.dir user set C:\download_win7
*browser.download.downloadDir user set C:\download_win7
*browser.download.lastDir user set C:\download_win7
Move your cache to out your profile, so you don't backup as part of profile
*browser.cache.disk.parent_directory user set string c:\\temporary\\Firefox-Four_cache
You might also clear cache with at end of each session to speed things up.

I'd like to back up iPhone4 to external HD before upgrade (Local drive to full). How do I change the backup location?

Upgrading to iOS5. I'd like to back up my iPhone4 to an external HD before upgrading, but the utility uses the local HD as default. Not enough room locally for my back-up. How can I change the destination drive for back-up?

iPhone Backup Location for Windows 7, XP, and Vista
Windows XP stores all of your iPhone backup files in this location:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows Vista and Windows 7 backs up the iPhone files to here:
C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Obviously if your main drive is not C: then you’ll have to change that, same goes for ‘user’

whats a green drive? thnks
Green is a marketing term for a drive designed for lower power use, lower noise, and lower heat. The side effect is that it's not as fast. Black drives are designed for highest performance, so they might use more power and run hotter and noisier. I upgraded my Apple Time Capsule with a green drive, but I put a black drive in my Mac Pro.

7200 RPM drives are faster than 5400 RPM drives.
As in cars, RPM is not the sole determinant of performance. In some cases, a newer drive at a lower RPM is faster than an older drive at a higher RPM, when the newer drive uses better technology. I have heard that some of today's high-capacity 5400RPM drives are faster than 7200RPM drives of lower capacity simply because the very high density of a 1TB drive means more data passes under the head even at a lower RPM. Certainly there have been times in Apple's past when new lower RPM drives were faster than higher RPM drives of the previous generation, a notable example being when 4200RPM perpendicular recording drives were introduced and beat 5400RPM drives.
Yes, generally RPM can be used to compare, but it is important to realize it isn't always true.

iTunes stores your iPhone backups in the Library folder in your Home folder.
iTunes places the backup files in these places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

How do you change the name of a folder/file on an expansion drive

How do you change the name of a folder/file on an expansion drive or external hard drive?

The same way you change it on the internal drive; click on the name and wait a second or two for the field to drop into editing mode, then just type the new name. Or Get Info on the file/folder and change the name there.
Regards.

I am having this problem. At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2. I am not sure why this is happening.
My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
The problem mainly occurs with apps. I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them. The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage. It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup. With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up. The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete. This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.
