How to use IMAC CD drive from MBA

We have a new MBA i want to install a game that i have that came on a CD. I have installed the game on our IMAC and am told that i can access the cd drive on the IMAC from the AIR to install things to the AIR that come on CD.
How do i do this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. We are apple virgins.

It turns the complete Firewall off. Because OS X has great security to begin with the chances of your needing the Firewall for normal home use is pretty small. My suggestion is turn it off, install the software using CD Sharing and if you're still worried after you're done turn the Firewall back on.

How to use multiple tape drive from single client when I want to backup single filesystem?

Hello All.
I want to backup 1 filesystem using 4 tape drives for reducing backup time.
In case of symantec veritas netbackup, they can user "NEW_STREAM" for multi-streaming backup.
Please anybody let me know that how to do use multiple tape drive for single client.
1. Backup Source server : Linux (1 client)
2. Backup Soucre : /data1 (500GB)
-> Current directory structure doesn't have sub directory under /data1, just files present under /data1
If direcotry struceture has a sub-direcotry like( /data1/aaa, /data1/bbb ), Is it availble to use multiple tape drives?
3. Tape Drive with OSB : LTO6 * 4 drives
Thank you.

You would have to create a different dataset for each sub-folder. If you only have files at the top level folder then even the NEW_STREAM option couldn't be used to split the job.
Organise it into folders and then create datasets in a client folder such as :
/usr/local/oracle/backup/admin/config/dataset/Linux/data1_aaa
/usr/local/oracle/backup/admin/config/dataset/Linux/data1_bbb
Then in the schedule you just specify the Linux folder. In each dataset you list the hostname and the folder name, such as :
include host Linux
include path /data1/aaa
Now it will create a new job for each dataset and therefore each folder.
Thanks

Hello All.
I want to backup single filesystem with multiple tape drive.
Incase of Symantec veritas netbackup "NEW_STREAM" for multi-stream backup.
Backup client has a single backup filesystem like /data1 directory with 4 LTO6 drives.
/data1 directory doesn't have a sub-direcotry, just present a files.
If /data1 directory has a sub-directory like /data1/aaa, /data1/bbb, /data1/ccc , Is it possible to use multiple drives?

Using the Hard Drive from my old iMac

I have just purchased a new 2.8 Intel core 2 duo iMac and was wondering if I could somehow use the hard drive from my old iMac.
What I have done is buy a case for the hard drive from my old iMac thus making it an external. The question that I have is that since it [the old hard drive] is running OS 10.4 will my new Intel iMac even recognize it.
I would like to somehow switch ALL my vast iTunes library from the old hard drive to my new Intel iMac without have to resort to making as many as 15 data disk. If such a thing is possible how do I go about doing so?
Another thing that I would like to do once my iTunes library is on my new Intel iMac is use the old hard drive [since it is 500GBs] as the platform for all my games and my publishing interest. Doing so would allow me to free up space that I could more readily use for other interest on the 350GB hard drive that my new iMac came with.
HOW do I go about wiping the old hard drive clean so that I can use it thus?
Thank you all for any and all help and insight that you might give me.

You might also consider connecting the two computers into a network, and then transferring the files you need, or even keep both computers online and use network sharing to access files from both computers.
In reference to your question, if you extract the hard drive from your old Mac and put it in an external case, your new Mac will read it no prob. (10.4 is compatible with 10.5). The hard drive can be formatted (wiped clean) using Disk Utility application (click Application, Utilities).
In terms of importing files from old to the new Mac, you might consider using using the automated OS X feature to transfer user files from another Mac.

Can I use my DVD Drive from my pc to load Tiger on my Mac

Can I use my DVD Drive From my pc (compaq R4000)to load Tiger onto my Mac G3 Blue & White?

The short answer is no
long answer is maybe but if you manage to get a DVD drive from a Compaq into a G3 then install Tiger it will be so slow (Tiger on a G3 iMac) it'll bring tears to your eyes.
What are talking about this sloww nonsense! I've been using Tiger since it came out on my Summer 01' 'Snow' iMac 500Mhz and it works quite nicely! Sure garageband is sssllooww but who needs it. Everything elese is good! Just bump up the ram and your good to go as long as the processor is 450Mhz or higher! Although after looking at your post, you were using OS 8.6 so I assume its a 233Mhz. So ya that would be slow...BUT I've found 10.2 Jaguar to work well with my Bondi 233Mhz with 192MB of Ram...

You can install it on your iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) either by redownloading it directly on the device via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it, or by connecting the device to your computer's iTunes and syncing it to it.
Syncing apps from a Mac : iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync and organize iOS apps
from a PC : iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync and organize iOS apps
As to how to then use the app, if the description on the app's description page in the store doesn't describe how to use it in enough detail, then is there a link to the developer's website on its description page, and does that have details ?

eg:
I have a inner table ,it contains a field named ast_guid,now,I search ten records,contains some duplicate records in the field of ast_guid.but I can not delete the duplicate records as ast_guid.

If the type of inner table is standard table, you should sort the inner table by the fields before user 'DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES ', and use COMPARING addtion.

How to use Sql data source from Essbase 9.3.1

Hi All,
How to use Sql data source from Essbase 9.3.1 for ASO cube.Are there any rules and limitations for that.
Do we need to create any data source connection for this purpose. If there please let me know the dteps to create that connection.
Regards

Yes you need to create one DSN connection and you have to use DSN name and login details at the time of building/loading of the outline.
Create DSN
Goto Administrative tools -> DataSources (ODBC) and add the DSN name and specify the Server name of SQL and login details and database.
goto data prep editor and click on File Menu and Click on Open SQL option Next window opens.
There you have to enter the details of the DSN connection and SQL query to build/load.

How to use the dvd drive...?

Hi Guys,
Just bought my new 15" 2.53 Mhz Duo Core MacBook Pro a month ago but until now I haven't figured out how to use the DVD drive. Well I can't seem to find where it is actually... Does all MacBook Pro has dvd drive? Coz when I check back apple's website and look for the same macbook pro specification like my one, it has a dvd drive included so I thought my macbook has it for sure but can't or don't know how to use it... This is my first time to have an apple that's why...
Hoping for your help..
Thanks,
Danny

Hi there Danny.
I believe you are looking for the location of the DVD drive... right?
If you are looking at your computer while it is open, it should be on the right hand side... "under" the keyboard. There is a slit that allows the DVD to be inserted into the computer. I think if you start to insert a DVD in there (shiney side down) part way, it will suck it into the computer.
(note: I'm not exactly sure, because I use a 7 year old iBook that has a pop-out DVD tray... but I think it will suck it in for you)

How to use iMac as a backup drive for TM

Hello....I recently bought the new macbook...i still have an iMac at home that the rest of the family uses...
is it possible to partition the iMac hard drive so that a chunk of it is used for time machine backups....i dont want to use the whole hard drive cuz eventually it will fill up and i'm afraid that will slow down the iMac....
and are there any drawbacks to using the iMac to backup my macbook?
Thank in advance

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
That depends on the size of the hard drive and how many gigs were available. Generally, this would be a poor choice for an older Mac. Much more elegant solution is to buy an external firewire hard drive.
EDIT: If you are going to attempt it use Firewire target disk mode.

How can I install audio driver from BootCamp into Windows 7?

After an uneventful installation of Window 7 (64) onto iMac cor 2duo OS X 10.6.7.
NO SOUND.
I have tried to replace the Audio Driver HD through Device Manager: it is not working
a) if I disable the Windows Driver and try to install the Cirrus driver from the BootCamp disc, I am informed that "device already has the optimal driver"
b) if I unistall the WIndows driver, Sound Video Game Controller disappears from Device Manager-so there is no place through which I can install a new driver.
c) If I start from the BootCamp/Driver folder and select Cirrus and Install, I am again getting the answer that the "device already has the optimal driver"
I am frustrated! Please, can you advise how to proceed?

You do NOT want to disable unless you are not going to use a device.
You want to rollback or uninstall and get Cirrus driver.
Try Boot Camp (Setup) repair-reinstall - to enable the device.

How to use seagate external drive with Mac

i have just purchased a SEAGATE EXPANSION EXTERNAL DRIVE, USB 3.0...can i use it with my Mac OXS....10.7.4....

No trouble for a few minutes, then I have to go out.
Re 'Too much detail'   When you ask a question such as the one we are working on, suitable detail would be ...
I have an (Apple item, iMac,model etc) running on (OS X 10.7.4).   I have just purchased a Seagate (size, model etc) external drive and would like to use it for (list uses).   Then ask specific questions.
If I can make this observation.    You appear to have gone out and bought a Seagate drive from somewhere without knowing what it will be used for.   They are not cheap.
It may be worth while to go and talk to whoever sold it to you and ask how you can best use it to meet your needs ... or if they will advise you how to set it up.
Most decent shops will oblige.
But if it was an on-line purchase then my original suggestion of talking to Seagate is probably the best line to take.
Hope you find all this helpful.

How to use the pps function from JCOP?

Hi
I'm trying to use the pps function from JCTerminal (JCOP API: [url http://www.cs.ru.nl/~woj/jcopapi/com/ibm/jc/JCTerminal.html#pps(int, int)]pps function ) to connect my client to a virtual card with a specific protocol (T=0).
But I always got the error: "Protocol and parameter selection not supported by this terminal!"
I've tried to make an ATR that support both protocol : [url http://smartcard-atr.appspot.com/parse?ATR=3b909580811fc7dc]3B 90 95 80 81 1F C7 DC.
I really don't know what value to put in the second parameter (baud rate), I've tried with 150000, which is in the range of the ATR but I'm not sure this is correct. And I could't find any example of it.
I'm also not sure where to put the pps command, the specification say directly after a reset, so I tried this implementation:
System.out.print("Start");
 readers = TerminalFactory.getDefault().terminals().list(State.CARD_PRESENT);
 //If no readers has a card it ends the process
 if(readers.isEmpty()){
 System.out.println("\nNo card in the reader...");
 return;
 System.out.println("\nReader Type: "+readers.get(0).toString());
 term = (PCSCJCTerminal)JCTerminal.getInstance("PCSC", readers.get(0).toString().substring(15));
 term.open();
 System.out.println("\nTerminal opened");
 //Getting the ATR
 atr = new ATR(term.waitForCard(2000));
 try {
 term.pps(JCTerminal.PROTOCOL_T0, (int)150000);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 System.out.println("ATR: "+toHex(atr.getBytes()));
 //sending a data 11223344
 System.out.println("\nsending data: 11223344");
 byte[] responsesend = term.send(0,cmdsend,0,cmdsend.length);
 System.out.println("Response data is:" + toHex(responsesend));
 //close terminal
 term.close();
 System.out.println("\nTerminal closed");I've got this output on the console:
StartReader Type: PC/SC terminal Virtual CAD Reader 0
Terminal opened
ATR: 3b 90 95 90 00 81 1f c7 cc
sending data: 11223344
Protocol and parameter selection not supported by this terminal!
 at com.ibm.jc.JCTerminal.pps(Unknown Source)
 at com.test.essai.main(essai.java:46)
>
And If I take a look at the data exchanged with the card:

I'm using a virtual terminal (windows driver), and I don't see how I could turn off the Auto-pps. I've also tried with a real reader and a card and I have the same error.
-2
I've tried value in the range of the atr (based on this analysis: [url http://smartcard-atr.appspot.com/parse?ATR=3b909580811fc7dc]http://smartcard-atr.appspot.com/parse?ATR=3b909580811fc7dc ). But I don't know if only I value of baud-rate is possible in the range. Anyway I just would like to change the protocol, not the baud-rate.
-3
I've already tried to call pps function before, after the first reset, or with another reset later and I always got the same thing.
 term = (PCSCJCTerminal)JCTerminal.getInstance("PCSC", readers.get(0).toString().substring(15));
 term.open();
 System.out.println("\nTerminal opened");
 //Getting the ATR
 atr = new ATR(term.waitForCard(2000));
 System.out.println("ATR: "+toHex(atr.getBytes()));
 jcard = new JCard(term,atr,0);
 jcard.reset();
 try {
 term.pps(JCTerminal.PROTOCOL_T0, (int)312500);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 }The same pps is always send after each reset...
