How to extract info from an almost diseased HD?

Hi,
My mac won't boot up it and after a silent "burr" sound, it shuts itself down during the grey "apple"-screen (while the gear is spinning). I have tested all the tips I could find on this forum and others (incl. resetting the PRAM, starting in Single user mode, in Safe mode etc.). It seems to me that my hard drive is dead (or hopefully almost dead)...
When I try to do Repair Disk through my installation disc it says there is an error with the HD and it can't repair it. My HD is visible in the Disk Utility – (but i.e. not on someone else's desktop in Target-mode.). I cannot mount the disk in Disk Utility and I can't copy the disk as a disk image.
Is there any other way I can copy or extract the info on my HD (I need some files that weren't backed up)? Perhaps you have some tips for more advanced software? I don't want to go to a Data Recovery shop yet... Please help.
Cheers,
Mat.

Mat:
Disk Utility reports "Underlying task reported failure" when repairing a volume is a serious directory/file structure error that, as you have learned, cannot be repaired by Disk Utility. The article linked suggests the use of third party software, which we have noted earlier. For more technical information on the subject see Kappy on Error -9972
There is a possibility that the condition can be brought about by a failing HDD, although that is not always, or even usually, the case. So the first order of business would be to run either TTP or DW and see what you come up with.
As to what you can do to recover your data if you are unable to mount the disk that can be a challenge. Here is what I suggest:
Download the demo version of DataRescue II
Boot computer in FW-TDM and see if DataRescue can locate your data.
If the files which you want to backup show up you will have to buy the license to be able to recover them. Dr. Somke's FAQ Data Recovery is a good tutorial on the subject.
Please do post back with further questions or comments.

How to extract text from a PDF file?

Hello Suners,
i need to know how to extract text from a pdf file?
does anyone know what is the character encoding in pdf file, when i use an input stream to read the file it gives encrypted characters not the original text in the file.
is there any procedures i should do while reading a pdf file,
File f=new File("D:/File.pdf");
               FileReader fr=new FileReader(f);
               BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(fr);
               String s=br.readLine();any help will be deeply appreciated.

First, you set i once, and then loop without ever changing it. So your loop body will execute either 0 times or infinitely many times, writing the same byte every time. Actually, maybe it'll execute once and then throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. That's basic java looping, and you're going to need a firm grip on that before you try to do anything as advanced as PDF reading. the case.oops you are absolutely right that was a silly mistake to forget that,
Second, what do the docs for getPageContent say? Do they say that it simply gives you the text on the page as if the thing were a simple text doc? I'd be surprised if that's the case.getPageContent return array of bytes so the question will be:
how to get text from this array? i was thinking of :
    private void jButton1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        PdfReader read;
        StringBuffer buff=new StringBuffer();
        try {
            read = new PdfReader("d:/getjobid2727.pdf");
            read.getMetaData();
            byte[] data=read.getPageContent(1);
            int i=0;
            while(i>-1){
                buff.append(data);
i++;
String str=buff.toString();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("D:/test.txt");
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF8");
out.write(str);
out.close();
read.close();
} catch (Exception f) {
f.printStackTrace();
"D:/test.txt" hasn't been created!! when i ran the program,
is my steps right?

How to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121

I came across some documents from version 11113, says there is a SAP adapter, however ,when I check 11121 there's no such adapter, does anyone know how to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121?

I download a package from Bristlecone, but I dont see any xml files in it, just a bunch of dll and I didn't find any instructions on how to set up/configure in FDM, it just explained how to register in SAP app server and client.
Hyperion 11113 has readme on sap adapter(Hyperion Readme Template), but I cannot find the same readme file in 11121, all I can find is ERP Integration Adapter document. any idears where I can find at least a readme document?

How to extract data from Chart History?

Dear all, I have read a lot of posts, but still don't understand how to extract data from Chart history.
Suppose you acquired 1024 points of data every time, then use "build array" to build an array, then send to intensity chart to show, then save the history into a .txt file, but how to extact data from the file?
How Labview store the data in the 2D history buffer?
Anybody has any examples?

The simplest would be to save the 2D array as a spreadsheet file, the read it back the same way.
Maybe the attached simple example can give you some ideas (LabVIEW 7.1). Just run it. At any time, press "write to file". At any later time, you can read the save data into the second history chart.
If you are worried about performance, it might be better to use binary files, but it will be a little more complicated. See how far you get.
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

Hello Debadrita,
Function Module BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 or BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL can help you.
For BAPI BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL, the parameters are:
1) PLANNINGBOOK - the name of your planning book
2) DATA_VIEW - name of your data view
3) KEY_FIGURE_SELECTION - list of key figures you want to read
4) SELECTION - selection parameters which describe the attributes of the data you want to read (e.g. the category or brand). This is basically a list of characteristics and characteristic values.
BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAIL2 is very similar to BAPI_PBSRVAPS_GETDETAI but is only available from SCM 4.1 onwards.
For the complete list of parameters, you can go to transaction SE37, enter the function module names above and check out the documentation.
Please post again if you have questions.
Hope this helps.

How to extract data from ODS to non-SAP system

Hi,
Can anybody tell me, step by step, how to extract data from ODS to a non-SAP system?
Is it possible to do it without programming effort? And is there volume limits for this kind of extraction?
The non-SAP system is an unix system.
Thanks in advance
Ella

Ella,
You can look at it from the concept of a BADI / Infospoke
Extract the data from the ODS to a Flat file / RDBMS using an infospoke. I am not sure as to how the infospoke loads data into the RDBMS ( did it very long ago ) but then you can push it into an RDBMS and I am sure it will be system neutral.
Hope this helps...

How to extract data from custom made Idoc that is not sent

Hi experts,
Could you please advise if there is a way how to extract data from custom made idoc (it collects a lot of data from different SAP tables)? Please note that this idoc is not sent as target system is not fully maintained.
As by now, we would like to verify - what data is extracted now.
Any help, would be appreciated!

Hi,
The fields that are given for each segment have their length given in EDSAPPL table. How you have to map is explained in below example.
Suppose for segment1, EDSAPPL has 3 fields so below are entries
SEGMENT          FIELDNAME           LENGTH
SEGMENT1         FIELD1                   4
SEGMENT1         FIELD2                   2
SEGMENT1         FIELD3                   2
Data in EDID4 would be as follows
IDOC           SEGMENT                          APPLICATION DATA
12345         SEGMENT1                        XYZ R Y
When you are extracting data from these tables into your internal table, mapping has to be as follows:
FIELD1 = APPLICATIONDATA+0(4)        to read first 4 characters of this field, because the first 4 characters in this field would belong to FIELD1
Similarly,
FIELD2 = APPLICATIONDATA+4(2).
FIELD3 = APPLICATIONDATA+6(2).
FIELD1 would have XYZ, FIELD2 = R, FIELD3 = Y
This would remain true in all cases. So all you need to do is identify which fields you want to extract, and simply code as above to extract the data from this table.
Hope this was helpful in explaining how to derive the data.

i've the same problem. i've found this solution, but you need download a JCE Provider that allow you to read the explorer certificate store.
You can try this one: https://download.assembla.se/jceprovider/
and the code:
import se.assembla.*;
public class Listcerts {
     public static void list() throws Exception{
          java.security.Security.insertProviderAt(new se.assembla.jce.provider.ms.MSProvider(), 2);
          KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("MSKS","assembla");
          ks.load(null,null);
          X509Certificate cert=null;
          String alias=null;
          int count=0;
          for (java.util.Enumeration e=ks.aliases();e.hasMoreElements();){
                    alias=(String)e.nextElement();
                    cert=(X509Certificate)ks.getCertificate(alias);
                    System.out.println("\n Certificado alias"+alias+":");
                    System.out.println(cert);
               count++;
          System.out.println ("NUM CERTS="+count);
