How to run FCP on an iBook without Quartz Extreme?

Hi, I would like to be able to run FCP 5 on my existing iBook G4 (1.2GHz with 512MB RAM). Soundtrack Pro and DVD Studio should run fine but I believe FCP will not launch without a Quartz Extreme graphics adapter (and I don't have the cash to upgrade to a MacBook Pro!) I have heard there is a hack available to allow FCP 5 to run on lower-spec graphics chips... anyone know where I could find this hack? Are there any associated issues?
Cheers,
Tom

Of the two, target mode would be far more efficient (and less risky -- in terms of software data corruption). I have in the past installed OS X on a machine with a poor DVD drive, so iLife should be no problem.

Run numbers without quartz extreme?

Hello. Is it possible to run all the iwork apps without quartz extreme enabled? I ask this because I am trying to run the iwork suite inside parallels virtual machines which do not support quartz extreme. I can get pages to work by setting <key>SFRAcceleratedCanvas</key> in Defaults.plist to <false/> but this does not seem to work for numbers as it doesn't even have a Defaults.plist
Any suggestions?
Thanks so much.
~ Ben

My Bad. I was thinking about Keynote. Keynote doesn't have the Defaults.plist. I should have said Numbers doesn't contain the <key>SFRAcceleratedCanvas</key> attribute in the Defaults.plist and adding it does nothing.
For Keynote if you create a Defaults.plist with just <key>SFRAcceleratedCanvas</key> in the plist it will launch the app without quartz extreme.
Thanks for responding also.
~ Ben

For those without Quartz Extreme.

I am now quite impatient for the fix to the STP 1.02 update to enable it to run without Quartz Extreme. Failing that, please put 1.01 back up somewhere.
I cannot believe that this was not in a Read Me file with the update.
G4 450 MP Mac OS X (10.3.9)

The Soundtrack 1.0.3 update fixes the Quartz Extreme requirement.

How to run MRP for Bulk Material without using LTP

Hi, how can I run MRP for BULK material without using LTP.
Thanks in advance
BK

Hi,
Use trasnsaction code OPPQ and goto BOM Explosion and selection depends on
Field selected
No dependent requirements are created for informational purposes for bulk material items in the plant selected. This can improve system performance.
Field not selected
Dependent requirements are created for bulk material items in the plant selected. These dependent requirements are displayed in the planned order for informational purposes only. They are not considered in the net requirements calculation; that is, they are not included in material requirements planning (MRP) and are not displayed in the stock/requirements list

FCP Won't Load After Quartz Extreme Support Dissapears, then reappears

I did the latest Software Update yesterday and weirdly, the Quartz Extreme support on my video card (NVidia GForce FX 5200) disappeared. Then it reappeared after doing nothing. Should I download a new driver? And if so, where do I get it? Without QE, FCP or and FCS 2 software will not load. There was no place on the Tiger pages to post this question. Thanks.

Two things: VST's don't work with Logic anyway, and they won't work in any program if you put them in the components folder. The Components folder is for AU plugins (that work with Logic) and the VST folder is for, well, you can guess...
But your real problem is Rewire. You must either update it to a compatible version, or remove the folder Propellerheads from *Library>Application Support*.

IMovie won't run on brand new Mac Mini (Quartz Extreme message)

I just bought a new Mac Mini. The latest 2010 Mac Mini.
I have a Samsung 23" LCD monitor.
I tried to open iMovie, and got the following message:
iMovie requires a graphics card that is compatible with Quartz Extreme. One or more of your graphics cards does not support Quartz Extreme.
I'm new to the Mac world. Shouldn't Mac software run on Mac hardware?
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello All,
I'm actually on my second Mac mini in a month (I returned the first one) with the same problem. I didn't have Perian installed, and certainly not Windows Media. I also have the problem that when I turn the computer on, it freezes on the Apple logo and the spinning gear stops turning. I have to shut down, then when I turn computer back on, it goes directly to the log in window. It will work fine from there. And most times, iMovie will start no problem. I hope that I don't have to return this one as well, but I might have to.

How to run java programs on machines without JDK

I want to make an installer for my java program that would work on machines even without JDK or Java runtime. How should I go?

Here's another point.
There is no particular need to "install" anything to run java. You can simply copy the jre to a directory of your choice, and from that directory invioke the JVM as you need it.

How to run setup for new datasources without breaking old datasources?

Hi,
I am wondering how to install some more data sources (2LIS_05_Q0NOTIF, 2LIS_17_10NOTIF and 2LIS_18_10NOTIF) without breaking the delta mechanism for other data sources when I start to use the new datasources.
I have installed some QM cubes (0QM_C04, -05, -08 and -11) and delta loads run every night. Now I want to add two more cubes (0QM_C02 and -03). The new cubes use datasources that are not yet available.
If I now activate the needed datasources, delete the content of the setup tables again and run 'Application-Specific Setup of Statistical Data' for 'Quality Management', 'Plant Maintenance' and 'Service Management', I am afraid that I will re-initialize the delta queue for the datasources that are already in use... In other words: I am afraid of breaking all datasources in application 05, 17 and 18...
I cannot find documentation addressing this problem. Any input, anyone?
Best regards,
Christian Frier

Hi all,
if I understand you all correctly, I can use the following plan:
0) Wait until no documents are posted on the R/3 side.
1) Run the delta loads and check that the queues are empty (RSA7 and LBWQ).
2) Delete the setup tables.
3) Run the 'Application-Specific Setup of Statistical Data'
4) Create and execute infopackages for initial dataload (for the new datasources).
5) Create and execute infopackages for delta loads (for the new datasources).
6) Run the infopackages for delta load from the 'old' datasources without running a new initial dataload.
So basically 6) is the step I worry about.
That is that I can start to use 2LIS_05_ITEM, 2LIS_17_ITEM and 2LIS_18_ITEM without breaking the delta sequence for 2LIS_05_TASK, 2LIS_17_TASK and 2LIS_18_TASK.
regards,
Christian

JDev 10.1.3 embedded OC4J: How to run HTTP in port 80 without conflicts?

Hi
I need to run the HTTP protocol using port 80 in the OC4J embedded version that JDeveloper 10.1.3 brings. I don't want the port to be decided at run time. I'm trying to configure it to use port 80, but I get conflicts and the port reconfigures to another value (1024). I need the port to be 80 in order to be consistent to the production port. (Why? Because I'm using SSLEXT, for those who are familiar with it).
How can I understand the conflictand resolve it? How can I know the conflicting process that demands the port 80?

Only way you can change this is to hack jdeveloper...
in jdev.jar (or jdev-sr.jar if you have service pack) find Oc4jPortConflictUtil.class and replace it with compiled code below.

How to install iLife on an iBook without DVD drive

Some time ago I bought iLife 8 only to find it was on a single DVD which I could not use on my twin-USB iBook with only a CD drive. Now a friend has suggested that the DVD could perhaps be copied to 6 Cds and loaded that way. Toast has a spanning facility to spread a big file over multiple disks. Or could my iBook be hooked to a big Mac with a DVD drive, and the program transferred by Target Disk Mode. Does anyone know if either of these techniques would work?

Of the two, target mode would be far more efficient (and less risky -- in terms of software data corruption). I have in the past installed OS X on a machine with a poor DVD drive, so iLife should be no problem.

Hi altenbach
Thanks a lot for your help, I've tried the state machine, I’ve created 5 case structures as following: start for 1 min, stop 5 min, start again for 1 min, stop 5 min, restart again 1 min and finally stop. I’ve tried the code and it didn’t work. Could you please have a look at the attached code and let me if I need to change something. I think I’ve not used the elapsed time function properly.
Best Regards
Rajab
you really dont need to repeat cases (2x)...using a shift register will reset your timer function once the timer has reached it's set limit. the "bool crossing" is used to tell me when the "5 min" case is done and increments the cycle count....ofcoarse, change the "seconds" constant to your desired time on the elapsed timer of this example
and you could "or" the stop to the "compare = 2" or change the select "wait" to "exit" with a constant connected to the stop

How to run repair in disk utility without a start up cd

Hello,
I have a macbook pro 2.3 GHz i5. I have run disk utility and it says that my disk needs to be repaired. It says I should insert the start up CD and then run repair but my mac book did not come with a disk. I ran disk utility because there are 247GB of miscellaneous files on my computer.
Any help gratefully received.

Lion has the 'install disk' built in.
You access it by restarting your mac and holding down the 'command' and 'r' keys. When the disk icons appear, choose the 'Recovery HD' icon. In the menu up the top, you can choose Utilities > Disk Utility.
