How do I make a backup when there are 4 users on my mac

How do I make a backup when there are 4 users on my mac?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you have more than one user, the backup is just the same as if you have one user. All users are backed up and there isn't any difference between a backup made on a Mac with one user and on a Mac with multiple users. Then, if you want to restore that backup in the future, you will be able to select which users you want to restore

How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in Sys

How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in System?
i have installed j2sdk1.5.0 then installed j2ee1.4,then installed Weblogic6.1 which use jdk1.3
Now the JRE is jdk1.3\bin
When run class that was compiled with jdk1.5,throw:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError
How can i change the jre to 1.5?

There is a workaround to move from 1.5 version to the older 1.4 version. But this could be specific to the browser setting the JRE version.
Excerpts from sun docs:
However, a user can still run older versions. To do so, launch the Java Plug-in Control Panel for the older version, then (re)select the browser in the Browser tab.
Example:
Assume you are running on Microsoft Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer, have first installed version 1.4.2, then version 5.0, and you want to run 1.4.2.
Go to the j2re1.4.2\bin directory where JRE 1.4.2 was installed. On a Windows default installation, this would be here: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin
Double-click the jpicpl32.exe file located there. It will launch the control panel for 1.4.2.
Select the Browser tab. Microsoft Internet Explorer might still appear to be set (checked). However, when 5.0 was installed, the registration of the 1.4.2 JRE with Internet Explorer was overwritten by the 5.0 JRE.
If Microsoft Internet Explorer is shown as checked, uncheck it and click Apply. You will see a confirmation dialog stating that browser settings have changed.
Check Microsoft Internet Explorer and click Apply. You should see a confirmation dialog.
Restart the browser. It should now use the 1.4.2 JRE for conventional APPLET tags.
Details are here
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/jcp.html
My system (Windows XP) has the version 1.5_09 set as the default. However i just installed JRE 1.5_06 and would like to revert back to _06 as the default JRE..
Will update if i find more information

How to close just one tab when there are 2 or more tabs open

I am always offered to close 2 tabs when 2 are open how please do i close just the latest tab

Is that when you are closing a window and/or Firefox?
To close the active tab you can use "Ctrl+W" or the tab context menu.
Firefox offers within the tab context menu by default "close tab", and "close other tabs".
To close the active tab use the close tab button at the far right of the tabs strip,
if you are set up that way, or the "x" on any tab that displays an "x".
With an extension you have more choices such as closing selected tabs, or double-clicking on a tab.

How do I pin RUN.LNK when there are no Pin To Taskbar verbs

None of the RUN.LNK shortcuts have a Pin To Taskbar verb.
I have searched every RUN.LNK on the disk, none have it.
Under Win8, I can find the Run icon in the Apps panel, and pin it to both the Taskbar and Start Menu.
This is a puzzler for me.
I want to do this with Powershell, which I already use to pin all the other common apps that I require.

Apparently, I have not provided sufficient detail.
This is entirely a scripting issue.
In the Win8 apps tile collection, a series of icons are available for Pinning to either the Start or Taskbar systems. Right-click on the icon shows a series of verbs applicable to these shortcuts.
In Powershell, I locate the .LNK file I want to Pin
$objItem = $objShell.Namespace($cDesktop).Parsename($strFullPathToLink)
In Powershell, I then extract the Verb in this LNK
$objVerb = $objItem.Verbs() | ? { $_.Name -like '*Pin to Tas*' }
Finally, my Powershell script executes the Pin verb:
$objVerb.Doit()
The RUN item on the Metro tiles is unique.
The Properties shows the two Pin verbs, but these are not visible to Powershell.

How to backup a rootenv when there are subfolders with DBs?

Hello,
Is there any way to hotbackup a rootenv with databases when there are subfolders with databases?
When I run a hotbackup (with db_hotbackup) on my rootenv, it only backups databases from the root of my rootenv. But, in that root directory, I have some subdirectories with databases too.
Thank you.

Hi,
If you have root directory as : */your/root/dir*
and within that you have folders like : */your/root/dir/sub1* and */your/root/dir/sub2* and would want to backup the db files in */your/backup/dir* then, you should invoke db_hotbackup as
db_hotbackup -cv -b /your/backup/dir -h /your/root/dir -d ../dir/sub1 -d ../dir/sub2

How can I make a backup from my Macbook Pro?

How can I make a backup from my Macbook Pro?

Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
     used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
     requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
     drive being backed up.
See Mac Basics- Time Machine. Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

How i can make a backup without separate hdd?

How i can make a backup without seperate hdd?

how i can partition the hd? please step by step...
today it's my first apple-day ... i was 18 years windows user
While I agree with everyone else, get a second disk and backup to that disk, I will point you in the directory of partitioning.
Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility
Disk Utility may or may not be able to carve a new partition out of your existing partition, depending on whether the end of the current partition is unused so the current partition can be reduced in size and a new partition added.
It may be necessary to use an external disk, clone your internal disk using SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner (both free to use when creating a full clone), then partition your internal disk, and finally restore the external clone to the internal disk again using SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you do not want to get a 2nd disk, then consider using an on-line service such as CrashPlan, Carbonite, Mozy, etc... for the files you absolutely cannot aford to loose.

How do I make a backup copy of purchased software ?

Hi everybody :
I just purchased PhotoShop Elements 12 (Download). How do I make a backup copy of this software ? In the event of a System Crash. I have a copy on my DeskTop and in my Startup Menu.

Hi stanulg1952
You need not to make a copy .. In case your system crashes, you can download it again ....
Otherwise, You can write it on a optical Disc and use it in future ....But make sure you keep the Installation files on the disk, not the one which are there on your desktop after installtion

How to replace sky when there are trees in the photo

I have several photos taken outdoors with a dull sky. I also have several sky shots to supply the blue sky; with or without clouds. I know a couple of ways to do that --as long as the horizon line is clear, such as roofs, etc. My preferred method is to use a tool; e.g., Magic Wand, to select the sky area and then copy/paste a blue sky image using Ctrl+Shift+V command. This makes the copied sky inserted into the original image and I'm happy with the results.
But when there are trees or other bushes between the camera and the sky, problems begin. No matter how carefully I try to include all the "holes" in those trees, the end result contains white spots where the selected section failed to follow the tree "holes". Anybody know how to fix these types of problems? I am somewhat familiar with layers-- which I have tried to use to solve this problem.
Using PSE-12 on Windows 8.1
TIA,
Pete Grant

Pete,
There are several ways to do this. In my experience the Alibony technique works well. You will be able to use your "good" sky pictures:
Watch Lesson 12: Quick Colorless Sky Replacement | Alibony Lessons for Photoshop Elements Episodes | How To Videos | Bli…
As I pointed out to you on June 5, 2014, this is how I do it after watching the Alibony video.
Open your picture (A) (File>open), and open the replacement sky picture (B)
On the sky picture (B), go to Select>all from the menu, then Edit>copy to place it on the clipboard
Go back to your picture (A), then Edit>paste. The new sky (B) should come in on a new layer
With the move tool, use the corner handles to reduce the size of the sky (B) to cover the old sky on (A)
In the layers palette, set the blending mode of (B) to darken
Set the foreground color chip to white
Get the Gradient tool out of the toolbox, and drag a foreground to transparent, linear gradient from below up to the top of the tree line, while holding down the shift key.
With a soft white brush, at reduced opacity, gently paint the horizon a bit, as we want the horizon to be a tad lighter than the rest of the sky.
If necessary, add a few clouds with the Return to Eden set.

How can I make a backup of my iWeb page, How can I make a backup of my iWeb page

How can I make a backup of my iWeb page? Is iWeb also disappearing on June 30?

Here are some Apple help sheets about backing up your files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1813
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1105
And I found this one written by an independant guy very thorough and helpful:
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWeb_Backup_retrieve.html
iWeb is not going away, but I would be skeptical about how much longer Apple keeps it around.
If you are looking for a new place to host your website, I use and would recommend Little Oak (www.littleoak.net). They are a Mac hosting company, and are even offering a discount right now for iWeb users (http://www.thewhir.com/web-hosting-news/web-hosting-sales-and-promos-roundup-jun e-29-2012)

How can I make signature darker when I print the report?

I need to put my manager's signature on the report. The signature is too light, How can I make it darker when I print the report?
I used file link and OLE, both did't make it.
Thanks.

No way to do it directly in the report. You need to work with signature image file using any graphic software to increase its contrast. The easiest probably would be to use Paintbrush and change the image to black-and-white, then save back as jpeg file.
