How-to hide the portal file shares on Windows

Hi,
Does anybody know how to hide the default file shares created by SAP NW 04 in windows?
In other words: what I'm trying to accomplish is renaming the sapmnt share and saploc share (both on the E:\usr\sap\ folder) to sapmnt$ and saploc$.
I know how to do the Windows part, but where and how do I configure the SAP Web AS part?
Regards,
Steven Dijkman

Hi guys,
Thanks for all the feedback. However, this still does not fully work.
I tried hiding the folder but it in fact only hides the folder, not the share itself. I'm trying to do the opposite, hiding the share (making it an administrative one) whilst not hiding the folder. With the folder hidden, the startup framework (NW 04 EP6 SP12) does not work.
By the way: checking / tightening access is not an option: security architects dictate what needs to happen here and unless I have VERY good reasons I should comply to what they say: change saploc to saploc$ and change sapmnt to sapmnt$.
If anybody has anymore thoughts, I'd be very interested.
Cheers,
Steven Dijkman

How to hide the alternative file metadata

Hi all, I'd like to hide the alternative file metadata from my custom profile, how can I do this without having to write a custom component for it?
Thanks,

I put that rule as global since I needed this in Standard. However, in the custom profile I do need to show the alternative file and I thought I could get it done by just reversing that rule in the custom profile but it hasn't work, anyone knows how I can bring the alternative file again just for the custom profile?
I've tried so far in the custom profile side effects:
<$dpPromote("createAlternateFile", "1")$>
<$dpPromote("suppressAlternateFile", "0")$>
<$dpPromote("alternateFile:isHidden", "0")$>
<$dpPromote("alternateFile:isEdit", "1")$>
<$dpPromote("alternateFile", "1")$>
None has work, thanks in advanced for any help on this.

How to hide previous project files??

If you have a client sitting with you at your computer and you have iMovie open for reviewing, etc., you might want to hide previous projects, but iMovie shows ALL previous "events"! How do you hide all past work and start with a "clean" slate without loosing files??

Get an external hd and just move them off by holding down the ⌘ Command key while dragging to move the folders rather than copy them. iMovie doesn't have a simple way to hide those projects, they literally need to be moved out of the iMovies Project folder.
The other quick and dirty way of doing it is go to:
Mac HD > Users > (your home folder) > Movies > iMovie Projects > (drag the folders out to the desktop). These projects can be dragged back in after you are done screening the Project for your client without any damage to the projects at all. So just try dragging them out for now.

How to cffileupload and store file paths in a database?

I'm using CF 9 and have multi-file uploading working. What I need help with is a help desk type page that will display the filenames with links to the files that are uploaded with the form that a user submits. When I view an admin page, I need to see the email form results with a list of the files uploaded and links to where they are.
Any ideas on how I can get an admin page to display only the files associated with each form submission? I'm assuming that I need to find a method of stroring each uploaded file path to a database but I don't know how to do that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You could proceed as follows:
1) Create a database table named uploadedFile. The columns could be, for example,
upload_id: INT, autoincrement, primary key
datetimecreated: DATETIME
serverfile: VARCHAR(50)
serverdirectory: VARCHAR(30)
2) Do your multi-upload, for example,
myMultiUploader.cfm
<cffileupload url="myUploadFiles.cfm" width="600" ... etc>
myUploadFiles.cfm
<cffile action = "uploadAll" destination = "c:\myUploads" nameConflict = "overwrite">



<cfquery name="saveUploadInfo" datasource="myDSN">
    insert into uploadedfile (datetimecreated, serverdirectory, serverfile)
    values (#cffile.timecreated#, '#replace(cffile.serverdirectory,"\","/","all")#', '#cffile.serverfile#')
</cfquery>

How to hide a SWF file on a Stage?

Hi,
I am loading my SWF file onto stage. Later, I want to hide it. For movie clips, I am using the following code:
TAC_mc.visible =false;
But I can't do the same to my SWF file.
Countdown.swf.visible = false;
Please do help.

if you're adding a swf file by loading it, you can use its loader to hide it.

How to hide either the File menu or the Save button.

Hello. Recently we upgraded Adobe Reader from 8.0 to 9.0 on our kiosks and we are having a problem. We used to be able to hide the save button when viewing a PDF file on a web page through a javascript inside the javascripts folder. However, while most other buttons seem to be hidden, the 'Save' button next to the Print button on the tool bar is not responding to our script. I think I should mention that you can not right click or press CTRL on our kiosks.
Here's what we have tried:
app.hideToolbarButton("Download");
app.hideToolbar("FileToolbar");
app.hideToolbarButton("Save");
app.hideToolbarButton("SaveFileAs");
app.hideToolbarButton("SaveTo")
app.hideToolbarButton("File")
app.hideMenuItem("SaveTo")
app.hideMenuItem("FileToolbar")
app.hideMenuItem("Toolbars");
app.hideMenuItem("File");
app.hideMenuItem("Print");
app.hideMenuItem("Save");
If possible, we would like to just disabled the 'File' section that can be dragged around altogether, however since this save button is the only remaining button on that section just the code to disable it will work too.
Also, I'm not asking to disable it, just simply hide it as if you were to right click on it, go into show/hide toolbars, and click 'File'. We have many kiosks and doing this manually would be... Well I got a life to live.
Thank you!

P.S: I forgot to mention. If I open Adobe Reader standalone, the button is gone. If I open it through IE the button is present. It might be because the file is already on the computer but.. I don't know. Thank you!

Question about how Mac OS X stores file information for iMovie and iPhoto

I'm relatively new to Macs (am using a 3yr old iMac and a new MBA running 10.6.4 and iLife 11) and I have this general question.
I'm using the iMac for a lot of Movie projects and photos. I've very quickly filled up my 500Gb hard drive and I don't understand why other than this:
I import a movie using iMovie and it's stored in an Events folder. I then make a project and it's stored in an Projects folder, I then share it to iTunes and it's stored in the iTunes Music/Movies folder. And I also see the movie in an iMovie Shared folder. In other words, it appears that a 2Gb movie (as an axample) becomes about 10Gb because it's saved in multiple places. Must I keep all of them?!
With iPhotos, I've imported about 6Gb of photos from my Windows PC. No problem. I copied across all the directories and then imported them into iPhoto. I then thought I could delete all the directories as the iPhoto folder became 24Gb in size! Not sure how but it seems that as well as keeping my original 6Gb of photo directories it's also put them into the iPhoto directory and somehow made it a big folder size?! If I delete the original folders (since they're now in the iPhoto app folder) then I can't actually browse the JPGs files can I except from within iPhoto only?
I've got about 80Gb of music, about 6Gb of photos and about 80Gb of movies. Somehow it's pretty much filled up 500Gb of hard drive (and very little other programs or files other than the normal iMac stuff it comes with) because of the way the Mac (iTunes, iMovie and iPhoto) seems to have the same thing copied everywhere.
All input greatfully receive and apologies if I'm being thick.
Richard.

Richard
I'll answer the iPhoto part for you.
If you use iPhoto in its default setting then the images are copied into the Library on import. Yes you can now delete the directories you have copied over.
then I can't actually browse the JPGs files can I except from within iPhoto only?
Yes and no...
The point of iPhoto is that it's your Photo Manager. It's the "go-to" app when you want to do anything with your Photos. - View them, edit them, email them, print them, use them in other apps, upload them whatever - all of these things are done from iPhoto.
There are two advantages to working this way.
1. You get to work with your Photos and don't have to think about files. This means the organisation possibilities are much greater than just files in folders. You can use Keywording, Smart Searching, Albums, Events and a plethora of other bases for categorising and therefore find your pics.
2. iPhoto is integrated throughout the entire OS. That means your Library is available throughout the OS without iPhoto being open by means of Media Browsers. You can search your Library from a MEdia Browser and so on.
So, while, yes, the files are not browsable via the Finder, there's no need to. Everything you need to do can be done with iPhoto.
Want to edit the pics in something other than iPhoto:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
Note that iPhoto sends a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
*For Users of 10.5 and later*
You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*For users of 10.4 and later* ...
Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
*If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
For users of 10.6 and later:
You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and later:
Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

How do i use my time capsule as a network to store files, etc.?

How do i use my time capsule as a network to store files, etc.?

There is no difference in setup..
Only trouble.. be warned this is quite problematic. With Mavericks even more so.
See Q3 here.
http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
Take particular note. The TC is not a NAS or file server.. it can be pressed into use as one.. but will suffer..
1. Slow spin up of the disk and fast spin down. Causing streaming and library issues with itunes.
2. iphoto is easily corrupted.. don't move it to a network drive at all.
3. no backup.. the TC cannot back itself up.. it is designed as a backup target for Time Machine. but Time Machine cannot backup network drives.. and nor did apple build in a backup.. it was never needed. After all it is a backup.. not a file store.
4. you cannot partition it. You will have issues with TM if you do store both data and TM backups on it.
5. You can use USB drive plugged into the TC, and experience a new definition of pain and suffering.. well slow file transfer anyway.
Good luck.

How do i decide what files iCloud does and does not upload/store?

Hello,
I am in the process of uploading my music to the iCloud.
This includes music from the iMatch facility that I am subscribed to as well as other music that I need to upload because it’s not available in the ITunes store.
I have a question?
How do I control what files/playlists etc are uploaded to the cloud??
As at present I only have 50GB of storage, how to I best manage this to see what I have and check I upload all that I want?
In the same way as doing a standard sync with your iPod/iphone to your PC, you can control what playlists and tracks that you add and which you don’t?
How in essence do I do this with ICLOUD and prioritize what it holds??
Appreciate your feedback folks
Simon.

Hi Kirk,
Thank you for your response.
I was under the impression that the limit was 50GB max or 25,000 files whichever came first?
I have a total of 80gb :-)
Anyway, if the limit is 50GB and say for somereason i only wanted to upload 3/4 of my files to the cloud, how do i detrmine which ones are uploaded and stored via match or non match upload and which remain outisde the cloud?
Can this be done?
Regards
Simon.

It is working properly. using p_file like rlgraph-filename i have taken the parameter and function module filename_f4 uploaed file.
Now i when i am runing the report it is inserting properly in foreground. But i have requirement that i have to run the report in background but it is giving error in background.
