How to identify a USB dongle on my PC or on another PC on the (same) web
Hi all,
I need to check if a USB dongle is currently connected to my PC or was pulled out.
The dongle might be connected to another PC on my web and then I need to check the same in remote mode. That is, check that it is still connected to the other PC from my PC.
I tried to implement this with the "Find.vi" from the System VIs group (see attached VIs), but it seems that it doesn't recognize my dongle.anks
Any ideas why is my USB dongle not recognized by the System VIs?
Any ideas how to implement it differently?
Note: My LV version is 2011.
I'd be gratefull for any idea...
Thanks,
Mentos.
Hello James and Dennis,
Thank you for the reply.
I do understand your explanations.
Let me add some more details:
My dongle serves as a license key for an application.
The dongle itself is bought from a third party so, in response to James suggestions, I do not have a set of commands for it.
For the same reason, I don't want to play with its baud rate.
The Visa Find Resource.vi also can not find it.
I noticed that there are some recommendations on the forum to use Devcon.
I know that's an option (at least for detecting the dongle on my local PC), but I wouldn't like to use it since I'll have to install it on every PC where my application is installed and that's not so convenient.
I tried to use the Devmgr.dll, inputing my USB Device Instance Path (see attached picture). It does detect my dongle, but there are 2 problems:
1. It displays the device manager GUI when run and waits for response. This is not good for my application. I can't have any pop ups.
2. The Device instance Path I read from my dongles is a bit different for each dongle, so there's no constant value I can put in my code.
Assuming I just need to detect the dongle on my LOCAL PC for now, is there any other dll I can use (Kernel ?) ???
Any other option to do this (without installing an additional application)?
Thanks,
Mentos.

After updating to OS X Mavericks, internet USB dongles topped working. Many other users have faced the same problems. Can someone please help me out? I am unable to find online help.
Sourcing Drivers for dongles when upgrading OS is a nightmare whether its osx or windoze. It takes the likes of Huawei ages to produce new versions. I strongly recommend getting a portable wifi (mifi) which will work with any device and sits in your pocket not sticking out the usb port where it gets broken. Recommend Huawei E5756

How do I share a playlist from my itunes library with another user on the same computer?
I would like to share a playlist with another uuser on the same computer. We have separate itunes libraries on the same computer. How do gey my playlist from my library to hers?
I'm not sure, but maybe if you activate home sharing. It should also share playlists, not only files.
The only other way I can think of is to export the playlist and import for the other user. -
I recently set up a new iTunes account for my son by giving him his own Apple ID & own login on the Mac we own.
In addition I have an existing iTunes account with a different Apple ID & different login on the same Mac.
We would like to share some purchases but do not know how to copy or import certain files. The summary is two
different apple ID's, different iTunes libraries, on the same computer, but different parts of the hard drive.
Please advise. Thanks.Load the library which doesn't contain the songs and drag them into the open iTunes application window. If you need to move them between different computer user accounts, put them into /Users/Shared/.

I have 2 computers with the same OS 10.7.5. How can I transfer all my Mail & Mail boxes from one to the other?
Hello Gene,
It sounds like you would like to transfer your mail and mailboxes from one computer to another. I recommend exporting the mailboxes from one Mac and then importing them to the destination Mac. You can find steps in the following articles:

How do I import bookmarks from FF in one OS to another OS on the same hard drive?
I've installed ubuntu lucid lynx and want to move my bookmarks from hardy heron. Both OS are on the same hard drive on different partitions. I've tried using the import option in the library but can't find the appropriate HTML file.
You need to mount that other partition to be able to access files on it and then browse to the hidden profile folder on that partition.
/home/user/.mozilla/firefox
You can only restore a JSON backup, unless you export the bookmarks in that other OS to an HTML file.

How to create a cube/ods/infoobjects etc..and also why to create the same
Dear Friends
how to create a cube/ods/infoobjects etc..and also why to create the same objects.
thanks & Regards
RamanaHi Friend,
Creating Infoobjects
1. Go to RSA1 -> Modelling tab.
2. Click on Infobjects.
3. Create a new Infoarea.
4. Now create Infoobject Catalog for Characterstics and Key Figures.
5. Now create Char Infoobject under Char Catalog and Key figure Infoobject under Key Figure catalog.
Creating Cubes:
1. Right click the info area and choose create info cube.
2. Select the type of cube you wish to create and comnfirm your selections.
3. The next screen is where you actually define the cube.
4. Now you will notice the difference.
5. Place your cursur on key fig and right click and chose infio object direct input; chose your key fig for the cube.
6. Similarly for the dimension; right click the dimension and chose inbfo object direct input, chose your chars and out them in dimension.
7. Activate the cube.
Creating a ODS is also the same.(in step 1 choose create ODS)
Creating Multicube/Multiprovider
1. Right click the info area - chose create multi provider.
2. select the cubes , DSOs, info objects that you need for the multi provider.
3. On the right side of the screen, you will see all the objects that you selected and open the key fig and dimension and drag the ones you need to define the multi provider.
4. Identify the chars and key figs.
5. Acvitate the mullti provider.
Why we create them ?
Infobjects : They are fields in R/3. As we require fields in R/3 tables we require infoobjects in BI.
ODS : This actually is like a table in R/3.
Cube : This contain the Key figures.(e.g Sales quantity, Amount etc)
Hope it helps.
Regards

I tried to download a movie on my iPod touch but due to limited space, it did not download. Then, I checked my credit card online, and I found the money was already taken. How will I get it to download on another device with the same account? Also, I was wondering why they took my money even when it did not finish downloading let alone get downloaded?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

I think I have it working on my iPhone 5. But, I do not see how I can control the exit point that I would like for the VPN. Are all the exit points shown in the VPN setting now going to work with Open VPN, or do they remain PPTP? If I am reading correctly, they look like they remain PPTP. If I cannot control the exit point for open VPN, which exit point is the default in the profile you provided me?I note that Open VPN Connect does not work with any of the new 64 bit devices like the iPhone 5S, the iPad Air, and the new iPad MIni. Is there any chance that you guys will come up with an update for your app so that open VPN can be made to work on all iOS devices? That would be nice, particularly if the Open VPN Connect app does not give me a choice of exit points.Thanks,
I do not see where to enter IP addresses in the Open VPN setup. Also, how can I set it up so that I can choose different servers in the same way as I can currently choose them with my VPN app but for PPTP?
Just a quick note to tell you that Open VPN has updated their app so that it is compatible with 64 bit ARM devices like the iPhone 5S, the iPad Air, and the iPad Mini Retina.That does not resolve the problem of how to easily choose among the various possibilities for the exit server. We need to find an easy way to choose.Thank you for trying the new Firefox. I'm sorry that you’re unhappy with the new design.
I understand your frustration and surprise at the removal of these features but I can't undo these changes. I'm just a support volunteer and I do not work for Mozilla. But you can send any feedback about these changes to http://input.mozilla.org/feedback. Firefox developers collect data submitted through there then present it at the weekly Firefox meeting
I recommend you try to adjust to 29 and see if you can't make it work for you before you downgrade to a less secure and soon outdated version of Firefox.
Here are a few suggestions for restoring the old design. I hope you’ll find one that works for you:
*Use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] to bring back the old design. Learn more here: [[How to make the new Firefox look like the old Firefox]]

You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.

how can I copy an audio effect from a clip and paste it to another clip in the same timiline...With FCPro 7 it was all so fast........
Tom Wolsky wrote:
The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all! -
How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.
I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested. If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library. Not the same as the other methods.
The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.
