I7 for finder tasks

I know that the i7 is faster for multithreading apps, but does it offer faster speeds for finder tasks such as duplicating files, and decompressing and uncompressing folders compared to an i5 processor such as in the iMac 2.9 i5 vs the 3.1 i7?

Thanks, I will mainly be using it for surfing the internet and email.    Although, I have been advised to stick with the 2.7 by Apple sales for what I do, I want the fastest overall experience. I am somewhat impatient when it comes to even copying a file on my computer.  If a task is going to take 30 seconds less, that to me is worth it.  Also, even though the i7's advantage has to do with multithreading apps, it seems that it would be faster than the 2.7 i5 for day to day tasks because of the faster processor.
In the past, I have done some video editing and encoding so there is a possibility I will again.  I held onto my last 2006 iMac up until now so I may hold on to my new one just as long.
I think I will go with the following configuration:  16gb of ram, 1 terabyte fushion drive, and the 3.1 i7.  Even though it might be overkill for what I normally do, I think I will get about a 20% increase in performance over it's lifetime, I hope.
If someone feels I am off base, please let me know.

  • Find Task usage for end user

    I want to use find task functionality on enduser interface. I configured a link for findtask.jsp on end user page. But on selecting the link; it redirect to admin user interface and prompts for login. Any idea why it's redirecting there and what can be done so that it works on the end user inteface only. The idea is to give this functionality to end user so that he is able to search any workflow task in IDM.
    Let me know if anybody has provided similar solution or used this feature on end user interface.

    1. In any of the previous steps, find the approver name.Pass that approver name from the 'METHOD' to TASK container.from TASK Container to the WORKFLOW Container
    2. Then in the current step, Bind the 'APPROVER_NAME' to the TASK, and then to the 'METHOD'.
    3. now u can use the APPROVER_NAME inside the method.

  • Is there a way to allow setting of "Due Date for All Tasks" to current date in OOB Workflow

    Is there a way to allow setting of "Due Date for All Tasks" to current date in OOB Workflow
    I need to set it today because there are tasks that is needed to be completed on the same day.
    Is there a way without modifying the page/form. like a configuration or something?
    ----------------------- Sharepoint Newbie

    Hi ,
    As Ajeet said,  for implement your requirement, you can change the data validation on the Due data field.
    You can do as the following :
    Open the site with SharePoint Designer 2010
    Click on Workflows on the left launch, then find ‘Approval-SharePoint 2010’, click on it
    On the Forms section, click ‘ReviewApproval_***.xsn’
    Then you can find Due Data for All Tasks, and change the validation
    In addition, if you create an approval workflow with SharePoint Designer, you can use a specific date, it contains hour and minute.
    I hope this helps.

  • Filtering-find tasks that include a particular resource in subtasks? MicrosoftProject 2010

    Hello everyone,
    I'm actualy working on a project on MicrosoftProject 2010. I met a problem when I would use the filter. I will try to explain:
    My project is built as below:
    Task A
    sub task A/resource Bert
    sub task A/resource ERNIE
    sub task A/resource Ralph
    Task B
    sub Task B/resources ERNIE
    Sub task B/resource Ralph
    Task C
    Sub Task C/resource Bert
    Sub Task C/resource Ralph
    I want to present to Ernie all the projects he's involved in, showing all the sub tasks. In this case it would be Task A and all three sub tasks, and Task B and both sub tasks. Task C and its sub tasks would be filtered out since Ernie is not involved at all.
    I tried all the options that I am able to do so I really need an help . I would precise that I've a lot of tasks and sub tasks in the project and it would be unthinkable to do by hand each time I've to present the project to one of my coworker.
    Somebody advise me to use Excel to filter but I would like to keep the Project presentation and all the link of the planification. Therefore they propose to use a code in Microsoft Project.
    Unfortunately I've some difficulties for coding but I can understand it. It just lack me the framework and i'll try the rest. It's for why I post on this forum. Does somebody can help me?
    Thank you in advance.

    Grub,
    I tried a couple of things with grouping and filtering but couldn't come up with anything to meet your criteria so I wrote this macro. It's a little crude but it does what you want.
    Option Compare Text
    Sub ResNamAndSumm()
    Dim t As Task
    Dim ch As Task
    Dim Nam As String
    'first clear all tasks from previous run
    For Each t In ActiveProject.Tasks
        If Not t Is Nothing Then
            t.Flag1 = False
        End If
    Next t
    'request resource name
    Nam = InputBox("Enter resource name")
    FilterEdit Name:="grub", taskfilter:=True, create:=True, overwriteexisting:=True, _
        FieldName:="Resource Names", test:="contains", Value:=Nam, ShowInMenu:=False, showsummarytasks:=False
    FilterApply Name:="grub"
    SelectAll
    'find tasks with resource, set flag for task and it's parent
    For Each t In ActiveSelection.Tasks
        If Not t Is Nothing Then
            t.Flag1 = True
            t.OutlineParent.Flag1 = True
        End If
    Next t
    FilterApply Name:="all tasks"
    'go back and set flag for all sibling tasks
    For Each t In ActiveProject.Tasks
        If Not t Is Nothing Then
            If t.Summary = True And t.Flag1 = True Then
                For Each ch In t.OutlineChildren
                    ch.Flag1 = True
                Next ch
            End If
        End If

  • No administrator found for the task error message

  • No Administrator found for the task (solution in FAQ not applicable sadly)

    Hi All,
    I have had to build a custom work item inbox due to complex client requirements, one of which being that all tasks are declared as "General tasks", so that all users can select and work them. 
    Work item execution is performed using the function module SWL_WI_DISPATCH (I've also tested using SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM), which sometimes returns the error 'No administrator found for the task'.
    I followed the standard instructions for this error message, refreshing the org assignments, transaction SWU_OBUF etc, and this did not help the issue.
    The error seems to occur within the function module RH_WI_AGENT_EXECUTE_CHECK, however according to our configuration I can see no reason why users shouldn't be allowed to execute the work item, if the org assignment has been stable for several months, all tasks are generic, and the work item status is READY.  There is no rule for determining agent beyond them being "General task"s.
    Does anyone have any ideas?  According to the data in SWWWIHEAD I can't see any reason why execution should be failing for these work items.
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    almoste there
    The new extended eMail notification do allow a feature, which is named "Forward by eMail" (in the general settings of SWNCONFIG). And the result is, that a work item can be executed by another user-id, who is not the actual receiver of the work item.
    If you looked at report RSWNWIEX you'll find out that exactly the proposed solution is in use there, having a very usuable example already in place:  (check lines 155 and following)
          CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM'
            EXPORTING
              workitem_id    = p_wi_id
          IF lv_rc <> 0 AND cl_swn_settings=>wi_forward_via_mail = 'X'.
    *-         require to put back if WI is selected
              CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKITEM_BACK'
                CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM'
                  EXPORTING
                    workitem_id   = p_wi_id
                    user_id       = sy-uname
                  COMMIT WORK.   "Needs to be done before executing again
                      CALL METHOD cl_swf_run_wim_factory=>initialize( ).
                      CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM'
    That doesn't blast a security hole, as far as I see.
    Using the table SWWUSERWI directly is not advisable at that time, I'd say.
    Best wishes,
    Florin

  • Query for active tasks

    Im trying to query for worklist tasks associated with a running business process. Using the WorkListManager and TaskSelector, I use the TaskSelector method setListeningProcessUri("*", true) and also tried setListeningProcessUri(".+", true). I thought by setting the isPattern to true would return all tasks with a listening business process matching the pattern.
    Has anyone else used this method with a pattern?

    Hi Dinesh,
    Check the below steps for extracting AD users information using powershell,
    - Go to Start -> Open Windows Powershell using Run as Administrator 
    - In the powershell type set-executionpolicy unrestricted (for allowing commands to execute)
    - Type the cmdlet import-moduleactivedirectory (to enable and execute AD cmdlets)
    - Type the cmdlet Get-ADUser -Filter * -properties *  | select * (to get all AD Users, each with all properties)
    - To show only select information such as firstname, lastname etc,you need to replace the
    select * section in the previous command by select firstname, lastname etc.
    - Also to display the result in columns, you can type the command as
    Get-ADUser -Filter * -properties *  | select firstname, lastname | ft
    To run as a powershell script, you can copy the above commands to a notepad and save it as a .ps1 file.
    NOTE: if you wish to run the script from client machines like Windows 7, you need to enable RSAT.

  • Sharepoint 2013 Custom Workflow - Email link to EditForm.aspx for Workflow Task

    I have created a custom workflow which starts a task with one or two users once a form is submitted.  These users receive an email with a link to the task that has been created.  The problem is it doesn't open the edit form for the task it just
    links to the displaypage.asp for the task.  This is causing all sorts of confusion so I just wanted to change the link to the edit form instead. 
    It seems simple enough but I just cant find a way to do it?! I am a beginner in this stuff so I have no visual studio experience and have designed all this using SPD 2013.
    Is there an easy way around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    hi Arghadip Kat,
    Thank You for Your Response, i've tried ur Suggestion but it is again not working
    just let me explain again
    i have two tasks,(these two tasks are in a loop.) with one BOR(object) and two Methods
    One Method is for first Main task and another is for second task(which is a background task)
    i need to get a value called final from a table, i've written a query in the method of Back ground task. and i'm getting the value correctly but i'm not able to pass this value to the main task coz the loop exits after executing the subtask and coz loops exit point is the value final.
    So for getting the value of Final in main task i've written the same query in main task but its not working.
    Thanks & regards

  • ESS- Leave : You are not one of the possible agent for the task ws9021212?

    Hi ,
    I have copied the standard workflow template wa12300111 and assigned the new template in the customizing. When i apply leave from ESS working time , it says an error " You are not one of the possible agent for the task ws9021212? " .
    The similar kind of Error i have solved before in by making the workflow as GENERAL TASK in PFTC as follows.
    PFTC -> Choose "Workflow Template" from the drop down -> Enter the workflow template id "ws9021212" in the text box -> now click on "change" button -> Now goto the menu addional data -> agent assignment -> maintain -> select the task text -> and set it as general task.
    i have cleared the buffer also!
    BUT STILL I AM GETTING THE ERROR ?
    Please help me !

    hi Richard
    Try to do this way.  IN the workflow builder there is a button with hat. that is basic data. click on that and  it will go to another screen and u can find a apple button that is agent assignment for a task click that.
    It will open maintain agent assignment screen. click the text below that and click the attribute button and click the genral task. i think this will solve ur issue.

  • Error msg - not enough memory available for this task - chm file

    Hi All
    I am using RoboHelp for HTML 8.0 and creating chm file.  I am using context sensitive help and the F1 key functionality.  I have in the past created some map ID's with F1 and they have worked properly with our company software application.  Now, I have a different database with our company and a larger help file and it is not working.  I am told that the database should work.  I also have lots of memory.  I am working off of my hard drive which is where the .exe is for the company application and my chm file.  I can open my .chm file.  When I go into the application and press F1 where I created the map ID;s I get the message, not enough memory available for this task and also topic not available. Quit one or more programs to increase memory.
    I have lots of memory and my file is only 598kb.  I also only have RoboHelp and the application running.  When I did a search, I found an article for a fix from 2004 from Adobe - Rb_46124 - not sure if this is the fix but the steps dont match since it is old.
    Please help me.

    Actually, if you were to use FlashHelp output, you might find that the problems are compounded, as now you have the Flash Player and all its idiosyncrasies in the mix.

  • What is my best option for synchronizing tasks (to-dos)/calendars on my iPhone with an Apple Mac?

    I currently have an iPhone 3GS (will upgrade to 5 when available) and Windows XP PC (soon to be retired!) and happily sync my to-do's/calendar between Appigo To-do/iphone Calendar on my iPhone and MS Outlook 2007 on my PC.
    Looking ahead I want to buy a Mac of some kind but before I do so, I'd like to try and find answers to the following questions.
    1.) What are my options for synchronizing tasks / calendar on my iPhone with an Apple Mac?
    2.) Which is recommended as the best?
    3.) Which options should I avoid?
    Thanks in advance!
    Mark

    You have 2 options:
    1)  Ensure in all cases "store email on the server" is set.  I suspect on one device it's not set.
    2) (preferred IMO) On all devices, set option to bcc: yourself to true.  This way you always get all the emails and can file them via IMAP, and they'll be everywhere (with mail headers which preserves sent date.  "sent messages" often DOES NOT preserve the sent date)

  • Which tools best for which tasks and project workflow planning?

    I am just getting comfortable with the basics of several CS tools and often need to use more than one to build a final product. Since I don't have a long history with the tools I still struggle learning which tool to use for specific tasks and then how best to use the variety of created assets in the various programs.
    Currently using CS4 After Effects, Flash, and Photoshop to create web flash swf files. Most books, forums, tutorials, etc. focus on a given tool and how to use its features. I have looked but not found books that take you through a project start to end that spans several tools and using the best parts of each to accomplish pieces of the finished project.
    Also, I find getting assets from one tool to the next does not always work out so well. For example, a text layer in AE can be exported a couple ways but by the time it gets into Flash it no longer retains the original text layer and is either rasterized or broekn up. So that is where better understanding workflow, if that is the right term, might help me ensure I use the right tool at the right time in the right order to minimize these kinds of problems.

    The guys from Waterloo labs did something similar: http://goo.gl/JkOy
    They used a sbRIO, which is very similar to myRIO and you should have no problem doing this with myRIO.  More info on their setup can be found here: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/11966/en/.  You may even be able to re-use some of their code.
