How to access system files

How to see system files in Finder (e.g. the main mail data file) ?

Not sure what "system files" you mean, but you might find it when you have Finder opened and look in your Menu bar (which starts with the  logo).
Then you find "Go" to the right.
1. For the system files -> Click Computer in the list, then Macintosh HD (Or what ever your hard disk is named) and then there is a folder name "System".
You might also mean that you are trying to find the library, which is located there also.
2. If it is the library you are seeking, you might need the "User Library" which is hidden by default.
To get that, open the "Go" menu again and then press and hold the "Option(or alt)" on your keyboard.
Then "Library" will show up in the middle of the list, and that is your user library.
I hope I was a bit of help, please do note that these folders contain very important information.
I strongly advise you to only adjust anything in there, if you perfectly know what you are doing.
Cheers~

I used a partitioned HDD for time machine, using a partition already containing other data files. I am now no longer able to view that partition in Finder. Disk Utility shows it in grey and "not mounted". Any suggestions of how to access the files?

HDD is a Toshiba 1TB, partitioned into two 500GB partitions.

Yes, sharing a TM disk is a bad idea, and disks are cheap enough so that you don't need to.
Now
Have you tried to repair the disk yet

How to access host files?

how to access host files?

Easy and not depends on your software version:
press Shift+cmd+G while your finder window is open and active, you will get a new window with the field where you can write /etc/hosts
Anyway to edit hosts file you should open it with the sudo command, this can be done in terminal window, not in Finder. Also easy and can be done next way:
press Shift+Cmd+U while Finder window is open and active, then choose Terminal.app, and after it opens enter sudo nano /etc/hosts. You will be asked for password - this is the password you enter then you installing new application. You should know few commands to edit your hosts file:
Previoius page/Next Page of the file - Ctrl+Y/Ctrl+V
Add record - Input the text you need on the last free line of the file and then press Ctrl+O
Delete record - put cursor on the line you want to delete and press Ctrl+K
Undo - Ctrl+U
Exit - Ctrl+X
After edit your hosts file you should update DNS records - in terminal window enter the command dscacheutil -flushcache
But if you really don't know what are you doing, my advice is do not touch your hosts file, ask for professional to do his job. Just like I'm doing usually. )))

How to access Excel files from different locations?

Hello,
I have successfully tested the Excel sample on WLS 7, and trying to run it on
the WLS 8.1.
Anyways, the common question for both is, how to access an excel files from different
locations (e.g. c:\path\1.xls, \\domain1\finance\fin.xls, \\domain1\marketing\customer.xls,
\\domain2\accounts\vouchers.xls)?
From example i can see that it picks from a specific path under repository.
Thanks
Ashok Gupta

The custom function sets the MS-Excel default directory to System.getProperty("user.dir")+"/excel"
(the domain directory), then opens the filename passed as a parameter. I assume
that if you pass in the fully specified path for the excel file ( like d:\MyDir\data\test.xls),
that it would open that file.

I don't know how to access the registry
by using java code. You can't, without using a native interface (JNI type) library.
This is one, there are others, do a Google search:

How to access a file in the network shared drive

Hi,
I have a pdf file in a netwoek share drive which opeates on windows platform. I want to access this file. the path to the file looks something like this
acddfd\sap\sapdir\myfile.pdf
I have tried gui_upload , gui_download , ws_upload and ws_download FM. But I am getting file_read error. Is therey any settings i need to made.
I can access the above path from windows menu start->run.
points guarnateed.
Thanks
sankar

GUI_UPLOAD / DOWNLOAD is the way to go. If you can access the directory/file that doesn't mean necessarily that the R/3 system can 'see' it as well. Your local frontend is connected to that share, but I would check with your basis that the application servers where R/3 is running do have access to that share as well.
Also does the R/3 user you are using have the same access right to the network as your Windows Network user?
We had a similar problem and eventually it was just an authorization issue with the R/3 user.
Hope that helps,
Michael

How to access my files

My main computer (G5) failed and it's been repaired. But for the time being I'm working with my laptop. When I try to access my files in Time Capsule (Time Machine) I don't get the option to look at my G5 backups. When I click on the Time Capsule Icon in the side bar of the Finder window I see the G5 Sparse Disk Image Bundle that is 228.35 GB
How can I get the files I need from the G5 backups in Time Capsule?
Blue skies!!
Jerry

It's very very simple.
Just double-click to mount the sparsebundle image.
Drill down a bit, and then you will see folders that are arranged in dates with the latest copy called "Lastest".
After you're done just unmount it.
