I want to minimize background activity online.

I have one older computer, Pentium 3 from 2002. It really bogs down on line with miscellaneous activity in the background. How can Firefox options help minimize this? Don't know what it is doing most of the time, but seems to be slower now that there are so many ads, etc. with live content on internet sites. I'm talking about standard type sites, not video, etc: CNN; on line orders through REI and other well established companies; my Frontier email. I keep the machine stripped down with applications and minimize open windows, this still happens.

You can look at Adblock Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1865

What is too complex? If you said that you are in China, then look up about how to contact Apple China. If you look at the online Apple stores, then there is a China online store.
You managed to find these forums okay so exactly how hard can it be?

How to set Background Activity state as error

HI Experts,
In case of foregruond activities,i know we can make the status as ' in progress' by exit_cancelled.What I want to do is,in case of background activity, if some error comes,i should be able to generate some sort of message, seeing which administrator can come to know that there is some problem.If I use exit_cancelled ,that doesnt solve the purpose.I think something should be there but I'm totally unaware.Please help me know how is that done .

Hello Vivek,
position your cursor in the object builder on the method declaration; then push the button "Exception".
Declare an exception 9001 or greater, which is marked as "Application" or "System" error (both of these types will result in a error state of the work item, later on). Choose some useful message id.
In the implementation of the object's method, use the macro
exit_return 9001 <var1> <var2> <var3> <var4>.
If you're not using any variables, use SPACE.
Instead of setting the error state for a work item immediatly, you could also set the exception type to "temporary". If you do so, the workflow runtime system will re-execute the work item 3 times after every 20 minutes (if you're using the SAP standard settings). Only after the third exception the work item will be set to error state.
Best wishes,
Florin

In imovie, I have greenscreen clip. First I want to change background to solid color THEN add a picture within picture. When I try to stack all 3, I get two but not all three.....help! thanks!

in imovie 10.0.2, i have a green screen clip. first i want to change background - solid color probably - but then i'd like to also add a picture within picture along side the video....have attempted to "stack" all three, and can get two out of three but not all three....what's the trick? thanks!

In iMovie you can only do two at a time. So the work-around would be to do the green screen/change background color part. Then Share this. Then import this piece back into an event. Then add the picture in picture.
In Final Cut Pro X, you could easily do what you are describing.
The main reason is that iMovie does all rendering in one pass. Final Cut Pro X allows multiple renders as you go along, so you can do much more complex effects.

I want to remove background image

Hi friends,
Hope all are doing well with your premiere
Can you please get me out of this problem..
I have done with my editing 2days back.. I have added background image removing blue screen..
But after the cd was burned, while watching it on TV/PC the video was shaking fully.. I didn't have this problem before..
Now, I want to remove the background image and keep the blue screen as it is.. how can i get it? I just want to remove background image without disturbing any editing part(Cuts).
Thank you..
Regards,
Sindhu

Select all the clips with a key, right click, and select remove effects. This will remove all the effects for those clips so you will loose any colour correcting or other changes you might have done.

Archive all the active online redo logs

Hi,
in 9.2.0 and in archivelog mode, how can I archive all the active online redo logs ?
Thank you.

Is ur database already running in archivelog mode?? If yes and if automatic archiving is enabled then ur redo will be archived automatically. I think first you need to check whether ur DB is in archive log mode or not?? Post the output of (from sqlplus):

Open database if an active online redo log is missing

Hi,
Sorry for the rather long post, but I specified all the steps I performed and couldn't make it shorter :-(
I need an advice on how to open the database if an active online redo log is missing.
For test purposes I intentionally performed a shutdown abort when the redo log group 1 was in active state and then renamed its only member (REDO01.LOG) so that the database couldn't perform crash recovery using it. Then upon startup I obviously got the message:
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 1 of thread 1
ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: 'H:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO01.LOG'
ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.Ok, so I checked the state of the logs:
{noformat}
SQL>SELECT a.GROUP#, first_change#, SEQUENCE#, a.status, SUBSTR(b.MEMBER, 1, 40) MEMBER, b.status mem_status, a.archived
2    FROM v$log a, v$logfile b
3   WHERE a.GROUP# = b.GROUP#
4 ORDER BY a.GROUP#, b.MEMBER;
GROUP# FIRST_CHANGE# SEQUENCE# STATUS           MEMBER                         MEM_STA ARC
     1        592134         29 ACTIVE           H:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO01.LOG           YES
     2        592268         30 CURRENT          C:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO02.LOG           NO
     3        592129         28 ACTIVE           C:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO03.LOG           YES
{noformat}Since opening the database to perform a log switch and thus change the status of the redo log group 1 from ACTIVE to INACTIVE to recreate the member isn't possible, I performed database recovery.

Log applied.
Media recovery complete.
SQL>So for log sequence #28 I accepted the proposed archived redo log in the FRA, for sequence #29 (that's the online redo log that is missing!) I manually specified its archived copy, and for sequence #30 I specified the CURRENT online redo log. And as it seems the media recovery was successful.
Next I tried to open the database but again got the error:
SQL>alter database open noresetlogs;
alter database open noresetlogs
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 1 of thread 1

ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.
The status of the log groups and its members is exactly as it was in the first query I wrote above, i.e. the redo log group 1 is still ACTIVE, so it's needed for crash recovery (which I had already done manually if I understand correctly how Oracle works!). I also checked if the datafiles are inconsistent (described in metalink doc id 1015544.102):
SQL>SELECT DISTINCT CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#, FUZZY FROM V$DATAFILE_HEADER;
CHECKPOINT_CHANGE# FUZ
            592269 NOSo, everything seems ok as far as datafile consistency is concerned.
My question is: how can I rename/drop/clear/whatever the member of redo log group 1 to open the database?
I tried to rename the log file member, to add another member to it, to open the database with resetlogs, to clear the logfile group 1, but all without success:
1)
SQL>alter database clear logfile group 1;
alter database clear logfile group 1

You could check if the recovery was complete by (re)creating the controlfile with the resetlogs option.
<CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE define_db_name RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
...>Thanks for the hint. If possible, could you only check if the steps I'm going to perform are ok.
I did an "alter database backup controlfile to trace;" and then extracted the create controlfile definition part. So in essence I should run the following statements:
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "TESTDB" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG
    MAXLOGFILES 16
    MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
    MAXDATAFILES 100
    MAXINSTANCES 8
    MAXLOGHISTORY 292

GROUP 1 'C:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO01.LOG' SIZE 20M,
GROUP 2 'C:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO02.LOG' SIZE 20M,
GROUP 3 'C:\ORADATA\TESTDB\REDO03.LOG' SIZE 20M
-- STANDBY LOGFILE
DATAFILE

'C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\TESTDB\USERS01.DBF'
CHARACTER SET EE8MSWIN1250
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
ALTER TABLESPACE TEMP ADD TEMPFILE 'C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\TESTDB\TEMP01.DBF' REUSE;Is that correct?
About the RMAN backups: Wouldn't a 'CATALOG RECOVERY AREA' populate the controlfile with backup information again (I'm not using a recovery catalog in this case)?
Thanks for the help!

When occurs crash recovery,why use active online redo log not archived log?

If current redo log had archived, but it's still 'ACTIVE'. As we all know, archived log is just an archived copy of the current redo log which is still 'ACTIVE', they have the same data. But why use active online redo log not archived log for crash recovery?(I think, if crash recovery can use archived log, then whether the online redo log is 'ACTIVE' or not, it can be overwritten)
Quote:
Re: v$log : How redo log file can have a status ACTIVE and be already archived?
Hemant K Chitale
If your instance crashes, Oracle attempts Instance Recovery -- reading from the Online Redo Logs. It doesn't need ArchiveLogs for Instance Recovery.
TanelPoder
Whether the log is already archived or not doesn't matter here, when the instance crashes, Oracle needs some blocks from that redolog. Archivelog is just an archived copy of the redolog, so you could use either the online or achive log for the recovery, it's the same data in there (Oracle reads the log/archivelog file header when it tries to use it for recovery and validates whether it contains the changes (RBA range) in it what it needs).

John,
Are you sure that the instance recovery (not the media recovery) would be using the archived redo logs? Since the only thing that would be lost is the isntance, there wouldn't be any archived redo log generated from the Current redo log and the previous archived redo logs, would be already checkpointed to the data file, IMHO archived redo logs won't participate in the instance recovery process. Yep, shall watch the video but tomorrow .
Regards
Aman....
That's what I said. Or meant to say. If Oracle used archivelogs for instance recovery, it would not be possible to recover in noarchive log mode. So recovery relies exclusively on the online log.
Sorry I wasted your time, I'll try to be less ambiguous in future

Requested End Deadline monitoring for Background Activity Step

Hi All,
Workflow for MSS Position change has been implemented in the system.
When a request was created thru Portal the Workflow was triggered but it got stuck.
I found that in a background activity step there is a requested end deadline monitoring which was reached.
Since it is a background activity there is no agent assigned, then what could be the reason that the deadline was reached ?
Can anyone tell me when is the Requested End deadline triggered ?
Regards,
Radhika.

Hello,
Yes, if it's workitem creation time + 1 minute then it means the deadline (any deadline - Latest End, Requested End, Requested Start etc, they're all the same, they just have different names) gets triggered.
What happens next depends on how that deadline has been defined - it may just send a message to someone and do nothing else (ie it leaves the background process running). Or it may be a modeled deadline set up to end the process. Have a look in the Requested End tab to see what it does.
regards

HELP. 3 years ago I purchased cs3. I had troubles with registering the serial number and used my university's suite instead, and (stupidly) did not sort it out. I am now wanting to subscribe to the online creative cloud with my cs3 discount. Is there any way to find / prove that I had purchased cs3 and locate a serial number? On my Adobe account it does not show my purchase of cs3 (I am guessing because of the trouble with registering my serial number). I have moved house 3 times since the purchase and am unable to locate the packaging or disk. Is there any way to prove my purchase without any serial number or showing under my Adobe account? Please help! Thanks

The CS3 discount offer is only for retail online product, it does not include education or volume license purchases. Refer to Terms and Conditions | Adobe
To check whether you had retail CS3 purchase, we need proof of purchase as well as serial number, without which the issue can not be resolved.
