How to view what is taking space on HD and why it's slow

Hi I am not very clued into the MAC speak and Computer talk so please be gentle with me -
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) (Verified)
MacBook Pro - model: MacBookPro9,2
1 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 CPU: 2 cores
4 GB RAM 500GB HD
And over night it seems to have taken up 100GB of my HD. The only thing I have done recently is to do a full backup using time machine. My computer is now running very slow. I want to know how I can see in a overview what is taking up all my space (a pie chart or file breakdown) .... I have looked individually at the obvious like iTunes and iPhoto but they seem reasonable at about average size.
After reading a couple of other threads I will installed EtreCheck - if someone can make recommendation why my comp is slow also thank you so much

How to view what are all programs maped with the event....

I am new to this events concept - could you please say
in SM64 we can give Event....
<b>How to view what are all programs maped with the event..</b>
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sam,
See these links:
How-to trigger a process chain using ABAP?
Re: scheduling process chain 3 specific times a day
NOTE: If you want to trigger the process chain from R/3, there are many examples in this forum. However, since the search function is not working now, I suggest you look at OSS Note 135637. This will show you how to do it also.
Hope this helps.
concerning to sm64 ..
Triggering events manually ...
Events let you start background jobs when particular changes in the R/3 System take place. When an event occurs, the background processing system starts all jobs that were scheduled to wait for that event.
example : JOB_OPEN to create a background job..
When scheduling a background job, you can specify it to start "after event".
If you do so, you'll have to create an event in SM62.
If a job is scheduled after event event and you trigger the event with SM64, the job will start.
Events can be raised by external systems in SAP by sending a command to a SAP application server. You can also raise event in any program using function mosule BP_EVENT_RAISE.
Reward if helpful.
Regards,
Harini.S

How to view what you have bought on a iTunes voucher

how to view what youhaverecently bought using an iTunes voucher

You can view your account's purchase history via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes - there should be a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link/button to its right. Selecting a purchase (by clicking the arrow to its left) should show the purchase's details, including how it was billed (e.g. 'Store Credit').
On your iPad you can view a cut-down version (the last 90 days purchases and prices, not how they were billed) via http://reportaproblem.apple.com/

What does "extracted channel PDF" mean and why does it continually duplicate on my desktop? I think it happens when I move a file in Finder to another file and when I copy some web files. How do I avoid this on my Mac (Mavericks)? Thanks for your help!

What application is set to open PDF files? If you CNTRL click on the file and open with Preview does the problem occur?
If not change the default application to open PDF files to Preview.
You can do this by highlighting the file and either use CMD i or Get Info , this will open a window with the info on the file with an option to change the application that opens the file.
That's all I can think of.

What is cookies.sqlite and why does it slow the start up of mozilla by a minute or so. I found it and deleted it,fixed the problem, but it reappears eveery time I restart mozilla.

what is cookies.sqlite and why does it slow the start up of mozilla by a minute or so. I found it and deleted it,fixed the problem, but it reappears every time I restart mozilla.

AVG reports these sqlite cookies each time firefox starts. they usually belong to tribalfusion or some other tracker. How do I block them in the first place. I thought firefox is a safe browser. Did not have this problem until I upgraded to 3.6.

You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

How to view what session is causing heavy load

Hi,
currently I was tasked to view what is wrong with the production server, there's some processing that is causing heavy usage.
May I know how should I go about investigating this?
thanks
more precisely which machine, which sid, what query is causing heavy load on the db server?
thanks

Hi,
Better generate and statspack/AWR and analyse the report to find queries which are causing heavy load for the time period in which database consuming high CPU. You can use top command from OS level to check the process are consuming heavy load.

How to view what was returned in wwsec_api.person_info

How would someone go about viewing what was returned in wwsec_api.person_info, I understand it returns a record but I'm not sure what the columns are other than a few that I figured out such as first_name, last_name.

Andrew,
This information is stored in the Oracle Internet Directory (OID). The PDK-June (available very soon) contains 2 sample portlets accessing user information from the OID, such as first name, last name, or email address.
Note, that your portal version must be 9.0.2.6, or higher to get these portlets to work.
The is_runnable functionality on the Java side is implemented in the form of security managers.
Hope this helps,
Peter

I have a charge of $33.78 on my account and I have not idea how to view what was purchased for that amount...can anyone help me find out?

Shouldn't there be a way to view what has been purchased and when on your account!!! Or at the very least I should be able to speak to SOMEBODY about my account!

You have always been able to view your purchase history. Go to your account in the itunes store. The drop down menu will show when you click the arrow next to your user name.
