IBooks Categories Grouping

Hi all,
I am using the categories tab in iTunes to group my books. However, when I select categories in the iBooks app on the iPad it shows all the books in one long scroll list seperated by category headings.
How do I get it to show JUST the category lists e.g.
Biographies (40)
Business (60)
Horror (20)
War dramas (5)
And then be able to go into the individual category lists from there, as per iTunes functionality?
Lets say I have 250 books / pdf documents, and I want to go to the 'War Dramas' category, it seems a lot of scrolling needlessly past books in non relevant categories is required.
I am hoping that I am missing something, otherwise I really don't understand the design logic.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks
Coley.
p.s. the above data is hypothetical, I don't like business books that much!!

You are right. I would call it Auto category or Add category by (chosen tag).
But, once again, to be clear and summarize all together:
Your library:
Apart from Apple iDevice, You have to maintain your books library on your computer. It's obvious, because your library is a source for iDevice.
On the computer (iTunes/Calibre) you are managing your eBooks by ID tags, according to your needs.
Your iDevice(s):
Install iBooks and turn on synchronization between iDevices on your Apple ID (iBooks will ask you at first start or you can set it anytime in Settings > iBooks > Synch Collections/Synch Bookmarks).
Upload your eBooks to the iDevice.
In iBooks create categories on your own and move eBooks from Books/PDF default categories to your new ones.
That's all.
Every time you set your Apple ID on the new iDevice and intall iBooks, there will be already your categories but empty. When you upload eBook (or send by email) that have been configured in iBooks once (placed in some category) on any of your iDevices, then it will be placed where it were last time. So, you don't need iTunes for that.
PS.
I don't think there will be better app than iBooks I've tested: Kindle app, Blufire Reader app (supporting Adobe DRM), txtr app and many more. iBooks are simply the best at any point (except store in Poland).
If you decide to left iBooks, you don't lose anything because you have your tags in eBooks, so I don't get your point here, except I'm lazy too .
If you have other questions, fell free to ask me.

Organiser 11 categories, groups & stacks - assigning tags

Hello
Organiser 11 imported my v.9 category and subcategory tags and converted the people-centric ones into stacks within groups.
Sub-category tags still appear present appended to images within the stacks in People mode but are not listed and do not seem accessible in Media mode.
Is there a way I can assign these "ghost" tags to an image in the same easy drag & drop way as those listed as keywords in media mode (or make them accessible in media mode)?
Thanks
martinloat

You are not alone...
I had found (and forgotten) that option in a post in this forum. I first searched in the preferences... but I was more lucky than you
Glad that works for you.

IBooks categories and subcategories

Maybe I'm blind but I can't see any way to filter the categories down into subcategories. Is that possible? I also cannot see any rhyme or reason to the subcategories Apple puts by default on each categories home screen. For example, Sports has a subcategory section for recent releases and golf on the Sports "home screen" (for lack of a better term). There's no way to change the subcategories that I can see and why in the world would golf be put there as an arbitrary subcategory?
At this point the Kindle bookstore is a million times easier to navigate. I'm not talking content. I don't expect the iBookstore to have a ton of content at this point but trying to find a book is a royal pain. Based on the limited surfing I've done in a few categories I don't see how it has anywhere close to 60,000 books since I quickly get to the end of the books that I'm able to browse through in each category. Makes me think there's something I'm missing.

Hi,
If you want to get it by product (RepositoryItem), you can do product.getPropertyValue("parentCategories"). It will bring all product parent categories.
ATG uses the same items to describe categories and subcategories, with type "category".
If you want to get by site (RepositoryItem), you can do site.getPropertyValue("defaultCatalog"), and get all categories from the defaultCatalog repository item.
Hope it helps.

I see an "archive" group listed in the ibook catagories section. How do i put the books that I've read into that catagory?

I see an "archive" group listed in the ibook catagories section. How do i put the books that I've read into that catagory?

Are you sure that you are not talking about the Kindle App? I might be missing it, but I don't see an Archive section in iBooks categories.
You can create a section for the books that you have read in collections in the iBooks app.
Tap on Collections, tap New - name it Archived if that is what you want to call it. Tap Done, then tap the bookshelf anywhere. Tap the Edit button, tap the books that you want to move to Archved - tap Move in the upper left and select Archived.

Project Server 2010 categories and group permissions

Hi, I have reason to suspect that permissions have been varied on categories and are different for differing users requiring the same categories. Are there any tools I can use to quickly look at the current permissions compared to the default permissions?
thanks
Steve

Steve,
This is one of the reasons why we always suggest that the default categories/groups be left intact and new elements be created for security.
You do have some options though:
1)
Here is an excellent quick reference set up by Guillaume, that will give you links to the default security as defined out of the box.
2) You could simply create a blank PWA instance and see the permission settings.
3) For the Category Specific permissions for groups, you could create new groups and set up permissions with templates.
4) I think the Orange book by Gary Chefetz and Dale Howard also details out all the permissions.
At least these are the few things that I can think of the top of my head.

How to combine 17" iMac G4 flat panel display & iBook G4

I have a 17" flat panel G4 800 iMac. Monitor works fine. The logic board is toast.
I have a 14" G4 1.33 iBook that works perfectly but the screen is broken.
I want to attach the 17" flat panel to the VGA adapter on the iBook so I can see the desktop. I plan on using the iMac to power the monitor.
I have found the adapter & cable that attaches to the logic board for the video input for the 17" monitor.
The key bit of information that I need to know is what wires from the 17" monitor cable needs to attach to which pins on a VGA adapter?
I haven't found the info I need in either the iMac or iBook categories on Apples Discussion Board or searching other Mac friendly web sites.
Thanks in advance for any help or direction you can give.
Al 12" SD 867MHz/1GB/40GBHD Mac OS X (10.4.8) Ti 15" 667/1GB, iBook 14" 1.33/256MB, G4 tower DVD RAM/500/768MB

You could try asking around to see who needs your iMacG4 for parts;
since you should be able to get almost enough from the good display
alone to buy a LCD monitor or one with a TV tuner to use with the iBook.
The prices of LCDs have come down a bit; not sure if you'd need to try
one of the ResX kind of software fixes to be able to use different resolution
LCDs with your little iBook. Costco had a 22" LCD for under $350; so a
smaller one may be available in the $180. range. Some with TV are coarse.
In some markets, the LCD from your iMacG4 in great shape and working
can be worth over $350. and if you lucked out, someone out there may
have a refurbished logicboard. Sometimes wegenermedia and other co's
that repair iBook/PowerBook out-of-warranty machines also have iMacG4s.
Some also have pulled but high quality used iBook displays.
The LCD for the iMacG4 requires a power supply and other circuits, those
are part of the base unit's video/logic board assembly and power supply.

SSRS Chart grouped by range of values

Hello,
Can you guys assist in the following scenario where I have two columns "Staff" and "Age"
Staff     Age

I'm trying to build a Column chart in SSRS 2008 that would Count th number of staff in every age range (20's , 30's, 40's)
I'm hoping to get three columns in the chart : one field for the 20's with 3 people in it;    and two other columns for the 30's and 40's with one staff in each.
I can't figure out the expression that should be used in the categories group of the chart.
thanks in advance

Thanks Elvis for a gr8 solution, i followed your solution but with that i got another problem,
please help me to solve this,
Now my problem is, if Data set bind with chart do not have any row for a particulate category (like "8-14 Days") then chart is not showing data for in with 0 value,
my requirement is if no data available for a age category Zero value is to be displayed like,
Please help me on this.. it is urgent for me...

Ibook design fees

I expect to be doing two book designs this fall and winter. In each case, there will be an accompanying iBook. I am trying to figure what's an appropriate price range.
The two books are first and second editions of the same basic book. The first edition one is simply for reading, while the second is more-or-less a textbook, although it doesn't call itself that.
For the first, I am taking the already written text, and redesigning in a predetermined size range. It was badly designed, so I am going to create a new design. I have been thinking of the ibook as one that will work on phone, pad, and computer. I'd say that it is a little bit above medium complexity. I think it will be around 225 pages (as hardcopy).
The second edition, as I mentioned, is more like a textbook. It will have several execizes and infographics in each chapter. It is not as complex as a science textbook. I don't really know how to describe it in a 1-10 scale, so perhaps I should just say 7. I think it will be around 300 pps.
Can anyone offer any insight about pricing for the electronic versions of these books?
Thanks a bunch.

Unless you can find somebody who does what you want to do and ask for a quote.... its all down to you!
You have to decide if a payment covers your time, if you are a freelance, you will have an hourly rate.. use that as and your estimate of hbours to complete the task as the basis to draw up a one off charge.
I dont think what the client sells the book for is relevant.
Also, using iBA, Apple Terms & Condition state that you can use the software and distribute a free book from the iBook store or whoever for free, or upload a book using a paid account to the iBookstore.
So on that basis your client cannot sell any eBooks made using iBooks Author outside Apples control.
With regard the technical aspect of using inDesign content with iBA, I think you should post your question on the iBooks Author group where there are sure to be folk having already done it.
Good Luck with your project

Difference btewn item categories

hi ,
what is difference between general item categories group and item categories group in sales org 2 in VA02.
Thanks
Ganesh

Hi,
       AS we know,
item cat determined by
sales doc type + item cat group+item usage + heigher level item cat,
its not mandatory that every item should be relevant for sales,
there are certain items which cant be sold by the process.
and item category is nt only used in SD but also used in MM too.
eg: if we create raw material , we dont have sales org views.
raw materials will be procured from vendor , for that process has to raise the request.
     In dat request material will be controlled by the item category( it not same as SD item category ) .
      to determine this system will take Genereal item cat group taken into account from basic data views, as it doesnt have item cat group which will be in sales views.
*- Hope this clears, reward points

As I understand it, your sample output was only to show the format, and did not pretend to be give the exact result given the sample data. This is pity, because means that I was not able to verify that my query below gives the desired result.
The exact relation between #tab1 and #tab2 is not clear to me. I'm making the assumption that a row in #tab1 may have zero or one row in #tab2, but not many.
My solution has two CTEs. The first simply joins the tables together and extracts the year. In the second CTE, I perform a self-join over the first CTE which I have divided in two by year. This is a full join, since an account may appear for only one of
the year. Note that it is instrumental to extract the year data in inner queries first.
The final query is just an aggregation over the categories.

CA Forum: General
Hi,
I have category, Products and sales data.
I want a report that displays products and categories, grouped by categoriy ID. Each category of each group has a number of products.
Here is the challenge:I want the report to include several months, for january for example: I need the categories and their sub products and for each group I want the total sales of each product for September.
I also want the same thing for February, March....etc all in the same report on different columns.
Something like this:
Category Product Sales for Jan Sales for Feb Sales for Mar..etcCategory1 Product11 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product12 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product13 xxxxx xxxxx xxxxCategory2 Product21 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product22 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product23 xxxxx xxxxx xxxxCategory3 Product31 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product32 xxxxx xxxxx xxxx Product33 xxxxx xxxxx xxxxPls note that I have my data pretty much in the same table.
Thanks a lot.

If the crosstab doesn't work out for you, just do your grouping, (say, Group by products, categories (by id) then date, and use multiple columns
go to details section, section expert, select format with multiple columns,
you should see a layout tab pop up, selecting the tab will let you chose column width,
gap between details and data direction ( IE... left to right, or top to bottom)
there is also a format group with multiple columns box to check if needed.

Z10 Issues So Far

Hi, Leaving this list of faults/bugs which I hope Blackberry/RIM Will pick up on as there does not appear to be an official way to submit faults/requests:-
1) It is possible to adjust master volume when phone is locked. This should only be adjustable when unlocked as I keep putting the phone onto silent, even when it has just been pulled out of the genuine Blackberry case.
2) What happened to all the Blackberry ringtones and message tones, the bundled tones are terrible, there isnt even a standard phone ringtone?
3) Phone reboots every now and again for no reason?
4) Can phone touch screen sensitivity be increased, it is no where near as responsive as my IPhone 5?
5) Previous Blackberry diallers. When in the standard dialer screen in OS 5 and below, once I start typing a persons name the list get smaller as I approach the exact name. In the new dialler it is not possible to do this (only allows direct entry of a phone number) and I have to search via the contacts tab. I have over 1300 contacts and this is crazy/long winded.
6) On occasion when pulling the phone from the Blackberry case the volume/speaker image flashes repeatedly and I have to lock the phone with the power button then unlock?
7) There is very little information regadring BES email setup. Previously I was using Bold 9900 with hosted BES. This offers AES 256 bit encryption. At present I can only connect using activesync. Will there be any hosted BES 10 partners available in the near future? As it stands I may as well stick with IPhone. Forgetting about the on-device security/encryption, one of the major (if not the major) features of blackberry is being confident that over the air email from server to device is secure, especially when roaming abroad!
8) Is it possible to smooth out the physics engine regarding scrolling of screens, in particular in BB App World. The pages seem to jump a set number of icons when flicked rather than scroll smoothly.
Some of the above may have been mentioned elsewhere in the forum. Other than these software bugs, the device is an excellent start. It would also be of great benefit if there could be a more direct reporting method of software bugs?

at the risk of doing their job for these guys/girls, we shud creat a compendium of stuff we see already. some of it is little, some of it medium and some of it plain strategigally stupid.
like adjudicting this forum???
why isnt BB listening?
some of my initial reactions:
CATEGORIES? - did i not configure my phone correctly???
elimination of the ability to use “categories” for tasks, contacts, calendar events annd notes. Im shocked. I was in disbelief until i visited BB forums where people are saying BB “abandoned” categories, groups and the like. This is a huge reduction in productivity and moreover demonstrates the BB business strategy remains completely disconnected from the needs of the professional business user.
Other silly aspects of your new platform ( and Ive only had my phone for a day) :
Inconsistent screen navigation requirements. (cancel in one place, back in another) dumb.
Difficulty escaping applications when you are two or three layers into the app.
You have added keystrokes to accomplish silly simple things like closing an app. I need two actions - slide and then touch- instead of just one.
When I sort contacts by last name it put them in order but presents the names first-last which defeats the purpose when you have over 1000 people in your contact list.
I cant get all my email accts into the front screens with other apps...
And dont get me started on the lack of apps - even the most simple and obvious: TD Bank, RBC, Watsapp, yada yada
can anyone get some mktg type at BB to organize this forum and get some official input? Google manages to do it.

Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?

Hi
Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?
How can I change Permissions for the individual users to see specific projects or all projects in project center and to see specific quick launch items?
For Example: if i have 4 users, A, B, C and D. what i want is:
User A can see everything and act as a project manager or Admin.
User B can view all projects in project centre but can change the schedule or resource assignment etc.
User C can only act as approver of projects and can view all projects in project centre.
User D can only view specific projects for which permissions are given.
can i have some expert help in sorting and understanding permission modes... as i was playing with project server mode permissions and can't figure out how to apply the above scenario to set of my user.
Thanks in Advance
Cheers

Hi Ajay,
Please refer to this link for detailed explanations about PS2013 security model.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197638(v=office.15).aspx
Actually, it will take a couple of days to explain in detail the security model that is a fundamental and tricky aspect of every PS implementation. But basically, you NEVER set permissions for a single user. You have groups in which your insert users. Groups
define "what users can do". Then you associate groups to a corresponding category. Categories define "what user can see". Thus the association of a group with a category will set "what the user can do on the objects he can see". Then, for more advanced security
level, you can use the RBS that will consist in "branches" in which you'll insert users. Based on those branches, you'll customize categories to fine-tune what user can see (for projects and resources) depending on the RBS branch and level.
I'd advice you to start "playing" in a test environment with the default categories/groups that might probably cover your need.
Concerning your 4 users:
user A : add him to the "administrator" group. Be careful that you're mentionning either project manager or administrator, which are 2 groups/categories with totally different permissions level.
user B : basically can see everything and change everything? it could be in the project manager group, assuming that there are no project visibility restrictions on the category via the RBS.
user C : waht do you mean by "approver"? Workflow approvals? Then it will be the portfolio manager group. Task update or timesheet approval? Then it is another long topic: please refer in the documentation to the "status manager" and "timesheet manager"
concepts. There are not related to the security model. In a few words, the status manager is the owner of the project plan, is defined for each task and approves tasks updates. The timesheet manager is an attribute defined for each resource in its parameters
and approves resource timesheet.
user D : you have to define which permission level must be given to this user. Basically it could be a team member that will see only projects he's in the project team. Note that team member cannot interact with the project plan in another way than submitting
timesheets and/or tasks updates which must be approved.
Once more, those are large and complex subjects that require a deep dive into your business model and tons of tests in a test environment.
Hope this helps.

Problems Migrating Entourage 2004 to All-Mac Apps

Greetings All,
Background: After careful consideration, I've moved from a Treo 650 and Entourage 2004 scenario to the new iPhone and all-Mac Apps platform.
It hasn't gone easily: lots of missing, critical data (below).
I don't understand why thousands of business people aren't posting about this: my data is invaluable, and compromised by chunks of it missing.
I have now spent about 15 hours researching this, and posted in several Google Groups. It's rather tedious, and I have lots of friendly people answering rather than people with answers. I like friendly people, but seriously, I'd rather have a hostile person who knows how to do this at this point.
I have read in several places of the scripts of a Paul Berkowitz called "Export-Import Entourage 1310," but the documentation provided doesn't make clear these issues are addressed.
I have written (five times) Mark/Space regarding their Missing Sync for the iPhone, but they have reading-comprehension issues, and I'm still not clear if they can get the notes from either my old Treo 650 via it into my iPhone.
Here is what is missing:
a) Can Paul's scripts (or anyone's!) re-export/merge Contacts such
that categorized/grouped are preserved? This is of great importance.
b) Will it export Entourage's notes, and will they be
correctly titled, and in a useful place on the iPhone? (I have about
400 notes), again categorized?
c) Any way to export my Entourage filters/rules to Apple's Mail?
d) Any way to export the large mailing lists (groups) I had in
Entourage to Apple's Mail?
Thank you in advance for your informed answers, and I must say that this has been as annoying as Apple thinking we can't figure that when AT&T raised the rates, the savings on the new phone was wiped out.
Think Better, Apple. If you're trying to get us to use your platform, document how to make the switch.
Thanks,
km

To repost from elsewhere:
Well, no one at MarkSpace or MS could fix it.
I did. I figured it out. 30 hours of Groups, trial and error, and then, a Eureka, elegant moment.
20 minutes for the poor sap trying to get their data out of Entourage/their Treo.
Now who is going to pay me?
