How to integrate a whole-house user setup

To start, I have seen an AppleTV box through the window of an Apple Store, about a year ago. That's about my degree of experience with one. I don't know what it needs in terms of file server support.
You don't need to add another computer in all this. Put the files on some central drive and share media off there using multiple libraries on each computer -- that's pretty much what you are doing now anyway. You might be able to piggy-back your current drive onto a Time Capsule or similar. The main issue will be transferring files to the drive without breaking links in existing libraries. They may be ways to facilitate that so they can be repaired easily. For that matter, as long as the present external drive remains unchanged then iTunes may not even notice it is connected differently and you'e up and running in no time.
You may be able to move your wife's collection to the external by consolidating to the media folder there. If all of her collection is unique you can probably even add it to the same media folder as the main one. If there's overlap in content that may be moderately risky (I personally would try it but would make sure I had a solid backup first).
iTunes 11 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12165 - more information at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22026652 - and steps 5-8 in https://discussions.apple.com/message/24491967
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449
Realize that iTunes does not actively scan the media folder for additions. If your wife puts a movie in her library it will add to the media folder but it won't automatically appear on another computer until a person actively goes to the media foler and adds that file to their iTunes library. It's like a public library (except now my library tells me if they have added a book by an author I like so I guess my analogies are starting to fall apart).

How do I use my iTunes on my desktop as source for NuVo Whole House Source?

I have a new NuVo Grand Concerto whole house audio system and want to use my desktop iTunes as another "source" input. My NuVo "source" inputs accept RCA plugs and my house is smart wired. How do I bridge from my sound card, through the cat5, to the RCA plugs.
NuVo does have an iPod dock, but I don't use an iPod. Accessing my library from my desktop seems so much easier than loading to an iPod and then sending it to the NuVo.
Thx

Well I am trying to avoid buying something that expensive, refurbished or not. And I don't want the iPhone to be the remote. I guess based on the solution you suggested, I want my iPhone to act like the Airport Express but only for audio transmitting, no video or photos or anything. I thought maybe there was even a Bluetooth method that could solve this, but I am finding that pairing my iPhone 4S with my MBP is not possible. Unless the problem has been solved?
Any other solutions?

How to integrate EBS(OracleApps11i)users into Oracle Virtual Directory(OVD)

Hi Experts,
We are using Oracle Virtual directory (OVD).
We have a requirement to integrate EBS (Oracle Application 11i) users into OVD. For this purpose we are using the Database adapter in OVD to do the same.
(Note: we could able to see the existing tables, but we don’t know how to integrate EBS users into OVD).
Are we following the correct approach? If not please give us your suggestions.
Thanks,
Parker

Clarify your requirements.
OVD - as the name suggests is a virtual directory. What is your underlying directory? OID / Database?
If your integration need is limited to User Identity data level integration i.e provisioning / synch then you can use native services from OID.
If you are planning to do SSO - eBiz integration with an OVD ... not sure that is supported yet. because SSO - eBiz - OID is certified / supported ...and then you can do 3rd party SSO / Directory integration.
I would like Oracle to support eBiz - SSO/OVD integration so that we can have underlying directories ... but that may be a tall order --- for now.
Does this help?

How do I extend my WiFi with Airport Express? I have Ethernet in the house and an Wifi that do not cover the whole house. I do not get it to work.

I have Ethernet in the house and an Wifi that do not cover the whole house. I do not get it to work. I have tried to get it into my network and it get connected via the WiFi but not the Ethernet. Also when it gives a green light I cannot see that it is giving any signals to my devices (iPhone etc).

You need to pay attention to something, while extending your network with the latest AirPort Express upgrade, your devices will be connected to it except your iPhone, you'll see your iPhone always connected to the capsule instead, even if you're at 1 foot from the AirPort Express.
You need to change the radio settings from automatic to 802.11a - 802.11b/g on your capsule, then I put it back to the default settings...
Now in the AirPort utility you should see your iPhone connected to the AirPort

Can anyone share how to integrate Demantra Demand Management to EBS R12?

Hi all,
Can anyone suggest how to integrate Demantra Demand Management to EBS R12?
I use Demantra 7.2 and EBS R12.
I search in Manual and in some blogs but not much data support. If possible, I want step-by-step starting from set up such as setup the instance.
More of my concern are;
- Is Demantra can integrate with MRP, without APS or ASCP?
- Is that necessary to integrate by using seed data? If I implement my series with all new series, how can I suppose to link them to EBS?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Tanya T.

Hi Tanya,
To begin with, you can refer to the Metalink doc 434991.1 for an in-depth explanation on the integration from a technical perspective. Apart from this, there is an ocean of knowledge in the Demantra Documentation libraby in the metalink.The Implementation Guide provides an overview of the integration processes that synchronize or move data between Oracle Demantra and E-Business Suite applications.
Now coming to your concerns:
- Can Demantra be integrated with MRP, without APS or ASCP?
After going through the above mentioned documents on Demantra, if you still want an integrated instance of Demantra and MRP without using APS, then it will have to be a highly customized solution.This scenario will obviously have a great impact on various business aspects,which is out of scope of this discussion.
- Is it necessary to integrate by using seeded data?How to link new series to EBS?
The Demantra - EBS integration adds two new responsibilities for Demand Management viz. i)Demand Management System Administrator and ii)Demand Analyst.
The System Administrator creates a new user in the E-Business Suite with the relevant responsibility for which the user is automatically created in Oracle Demantra.
The user with "Demand management system Administrator" responsibility can create new series that get added in the Demand management component on creation. This series can then be used as per requirement.
I hope my comments help.Feel free for further discussions.

Shekhar

I want to create an airplay whole house audio system

I want to build a multi-zone whole house airplay audio system. I used airplay very successfully at my old house and love the ability to independentaly control different airplay devices with the Remote app on my iphone.
So, here is what I have in my new (old) house. There are 10 pairs of speakers in various rooms throughout the house. I'd like to create 10 different airplay zones utilizing 10 Airport Expresses and a multi channel amp. I'd use the audio out on each express to feed the amp. What I don't know is if I can place 10 airport expresses right next to each other without the wifi going crazy. I thought about running CAT5 to that location and putting in a switch and feeding the extremes via CAT5 and disabling the wifi.
Any suggestions if the above would work in a wifi configuaration? I'm thinking I should go CAT5 though and disable wireless.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

You guys are ON IT! This is what I did with the Airport Express product:
http://www.inwallblog.com/wp/apple-airport-express/
It's only one zone but it's what got me started.
With that multi-zone amp, the AirPlay feature really starts to shine. 6 Airports plugged into that amp and you've got full control with all your rooms from your iPhone....how cool is that!
The only downside I can see is that you need multiple iTunes libraries running at the same time to listen to something different. Or you could have the music downloaded onto your phone. Or you could use Apple Match. Or....oh meh gosh, I think I'm an AppleFanBoy.

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility?

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility? My company is using an Airport Extreme in our office now and I want to prevent other employees from messing with the network/settings. Is there a way to place a password on the settings to allow only the admin to access the network name and password?

Hi - you have will have to change the device passwords on all the base stations and then don't give them to anyone except the administrators and tell them not to save them on their computers that use the older versions of the Airport Utility - for the newer versions like the mobile apps, as soon as you enter the pasword it is saved and is visible in the advanced pane along with the network password - so if anyone gets a hold of your iPad or iPhone, they can edit the whole network - I have this same issue with my networks in the office and it is inconvenient but doable - I hope this helps

How do I eliminate an extra user account i never wanted to create?

I recently reformatted and reinstalled and re-set up my whole system, and even though I thought i was beng careful to set up as lean a system as possible, I somehow ended up with an extra, unidentified user account at my login screen. I normally log in automatically at startup, but whenever I need to logout and log back in, there's this annoying extra user log in, that, up until this time, I've never had to deal with, as I'm the only one using my computer. I can't get rid of the blasted thing no matter what I've tried, and there seems to be no documentation covering this mystery, either. Anybody else run into this problem before, and how did you give this extra user account the boot?

Those 2 folders are normal, and Aliases.

How to backup files from other user logged in as administrator

RE: How to backup files from other user logged in as administrator AND/OR how to repair drive with "Invalid catalog PEOF"
Hello,
My MacBook Pro computer’s hard drive is not booting.
I booted with the base operating system and ran Disk utilities and I got the following messages:
    Invalid catalog PEOF
    The volume could not be verified completely.
    This disk needs to be repaired.
    Disk utility can’t repair this disk. Backup as many files as possible, reformat the disk,
    and restore your backed-up files.
The problem is that I have a couple of USERS set up on this computer, and it won’t let me backup the files of the second user. The folders are locked and I can’t access them, even though I am logged in as the administrator.
I made a boot disk on my other computer ( a MacPro Early 2008 ) desktop computer with the DiskWarrior 4.4 updater,
but it won’t boot on my MacBook Pro.
How can I backup these user files so that I can copy them back once I fix the drive?
or better yet, How can I repair the Invalid catalog PEOF on this drive?
Thank you in advance for your time!
Bill

Try using Disk Utility/Restore to copy the backup to a new location. Please note that this will reformat the destination partition which will erase all data.
Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

How to Integrate SAP R/3 ECC 6.0 with XI3.0 or PI7.0

Hi,
I am having access to one SAP R/3 ECC 6.0 server through internet.
I have stand alone SAP Net weaver PI 7.0 installed on my laptop.I do not know how to integrate both ,I mean to say that what are the steps I need to follow so that two systems can talk to each other.
Appreciate your details.
Thanks and Regards,
Viswanath

Hi,
It will be possible to do all the configurations related to RFC destination and partner profile as the experties have mentioned in above posts.
You need to also check with the way you could be able to access the SAP R/3 ECC 6.0 server through internet.
When you establish a connection to a client through a destination, the HTTP connection must first be entered in transaction SM59.
There are two types of HTTP connection in transaction SM59: Call transaction SM59 to display the different RFC destinations.
The HTTP connection to the external server (connection type G) and the HTTP connection to the R/3 system (connection type H) are different only in their logon procedures. Their technical settings are the same. To display the technical settings, double-click a connection.
You can choose from three tabs. Under Technical Settings, you can specify the following:
·        Target Host: The host to which you want to connect.
Note that if you are using HTTPS as a protocol, you have to specify the full host name (with domain).
·        Service No.: Here, you specify the port. The destination host must of course be configured in such a way that the specified port understands the corresponding protocol (HTTP or HTTPS). See Parameterizing the ICM and the ICM Server Cache.
·        Path Prefix: At the time when the connection to this destination is initiated, the system inserts this sub-path before ~request_uri.
·        HTTP Proxy Options: Here, you can configure a proxy for HTTP connections: You can determine the proxy host and service, as well as users and passwords for the HTTP connection.
The tab page Logon/Security will be different depending on whether you have selected a HTTP connection to an external server (connection type G) or a HTTP connection to an R/3 system (connection type H).
HTTP Connection to an External Server (Connection Type G)
Choose the connection you want to use. You can choose from the following logon procedures:
·        No Logon: The server program does not request a user or password.
·        Basic Authentication: The server program requests a user and password. Basic Authentication is a standard HTTP method for authenticating users. When a user logs on to the target system, he or she provides a user ID and password as authentication. This information is then sent in a header variable as a Base 64-encoded string to the server, through the HTTP connection.
·        SSL Client Certificate: If you use client certificates for authentication, the client authentication is performed through the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. In this case, you must also select the SSL Client PSE of the SAP Web AS that contains the relevant certificate for the authentication. The target system must handle the issuer of the SAP Web AS client certificate as a trusted system.
Under Logon/Security, you can also activate SSL to ensure that HTTPS is the protocol used (if you select SSL, make sure that the correct port is entered under Technical Settings). In the security transaction STRUST you can determine which type of SSL client is used. (Getting Started with the Trust Manager, Trust Manager).
The field Authorization for Destination has been implemented as an additional level of protection. We recommend that you specify a user and password for the RFC destination.
Thanks

How to integrate EP & SAP TCodes with ccBPM in XI?

Hi,
Scenario:
A non-SAP system is creating a BPEL file. I have to import that file into XI & create a BPM for it. Then I have to integrate the BPM to SAP MM transactions & EP also in such a way that if user interacts with EP then the processing should take place as per the process defined in BPM.
What I know:
I have a BPEL file created from some non-SAP system & using it I have to create ccBPM in XI. Up to this point I know what to do & how to do.
Problem:
Now the issue which I am facing is that how to connect my BPM to SAP transactions. As you told us in training that for every ccBPM a Business workflow is created in SAP. So, as per my understanding, it means the workflow should get triggered when any event is created by users action in EP. But the problem is that how to integrate EP & SAP transactions to my ccBPM?
Please provide your valuable inputs ASAP. It is urgent.
Thanks,
Shaurya

Hi,
By useing SAP transaction iView in EP , you can directly interact SAP transaction then where is the portion of XI and ccBPM??
Solution is already expalined in Above blog. correct suitable blog.
from EP you can interact Xi through Webservice , this webservice can be created from NWDS , you can edit or EJB also..
that Webservice ,through SOAP adapter integrate the XI , in XI use ccBPM, whatever you want through RFC /BAPI you can do suitable operation in R#, here you r problem is how to call SAP transaction,..
here please expalin what is the requirement.. or select suitable BAPI /RFC to do such operation/functionality in R3.
i hope you got it..
