Installer is requesting old media

I have a slight twist on a seemingly common issue... I've found many many posts about additional installers requesting previous media to complete a built but none of them answers my exact situation.
My main question is how do I get my installer to build if it can't find a valid installer for a driver component?
My application was last developed on LV2012. When attempting to build an installer for it, the installer
asked for Device Drivers - August 2011. That seems to be the one set of discs we don't have.
It was decided to upgrade to LV 2013 and install the latest and greatest drivers, then build the installer. We
did, and the installer still asked for the same thing. I did a mass compile on the project, scoured the project
folders and ensured nothing pointed to any 2011 or 2012 version VIs. Build again asked for the same thing.
So I invested the 5hrs neccessary to download the NI Device Drivers - August 2011 from ni.com. After running that installer, the drivers now are on my local drive. Great! But now when I run the installer and point to the folder as the location of the media, I get an error stating that the media provided does not have a valid installer.
I looked at the folders and files in the driver location and all that is there is a Product folder. All my other driver downloads have at least a setup.exe file, many readme.html files, and other SupportFiles, Documents, Install guides, etc.. None of that came down with the August 2011 drivers. I tryed a few things as far as pointing the installer directly to the product folder to be installed (488, VISA, and Serial), and copying other setup executable in the top level driver folders. None has worked yet.
So I really have two questions:
First, why is the app installer looking for 2011 drivers if everything is upgraded to 2013 drivers?
Second, how do I get my installer to build if it can't find a valid installer for a August 2011 driver media?

There is some dependanccy stuck on the 2011 DS1 media with the app builder for 2013 I have not inspected the 2013 SP1 release
Hopefully you can get a DVD from your local NI guy and if you "Keep" the local copy you will only need to bump your head against this once.
(Allways Allways keep old media handy)

Installing upgrade software without the old media

I am trying to install photoshop cs. It was an upgrade product. I no longer have the old media, but I do have the old serial number. How can I get the new version installed?

That's odd. It should give you an option to input the old s/n.

How to stop iTunes from looking in old media folder location?

Several years ago, I moved my iTunes media onto an external drive attached to my Airport Extreme, because I was running out of room on the internal drive.
I had all the usual problems with iTunes looking on the internal drive, but it mostly worked okay, as long as I didn't mind only being able to access my music at home.
A few months ago, I got a 2TB internal drive, and told iTunes to use the default media folder location on the internal drive again. I also check to keep iTunes media folder organized, and to copy files to the iTunes media folder when adding them to the library. I had already manually copied the folder structure over from the external drive.
I noticed that when I would start iTunes, I would see the activity light on the external drive, and it would be mounted on my Desktop. I checked, and the location for the media folder was still correct in preferences. I checked a file or two and (this seems to be gone in iTunes 12.1) it was still showing the file location on the other drive.
I tried to manually "cut the cord" by renaming the folder on the external drive, but iTunes was cleverer than that.
What do I need to do to stop iTunes from looking for files in the old location? I'd like to reclaim that space, but I'm afraid to remove anything over there, in case iTunes has been putting things over there instead of the new, correct location.
This is a MacBook Pro 8,2 i7, with 10.10.3 and iTunes 12.1.x.
Thanks,
Sean

Manually moving files yourself and telling iTunes where to store media in preferences does not do what oh so many people who come here with issues think it does. Changing iTunes' media storage preferences only tells iTunes where to store new media. iTunes still looks for old media where it last saw it, namely on your external drive. You have to let iTunes do the relocating of the old media files by consolidating to the internal drive. It will cheerfully ignore any changes you do in Finder yourself.

Move old installations facts from old contract to new contract in transfer

Hi all,
Is there anyway to automate in moving old installations facts from old contract to new contract, during transfer process in CRM / UCES ?
regards,
Xiang Li
Edited by: xiangli heah on Jul 13, 2011 10:35 AM

Hi Vikrant Guptarya,
1. For CRM IC Web, use "Contract Management" work center > use "Move" transaction to perform Move Out and Move In
Upon saving, the Move Out contract will be completed for the previous premise, and Move In contract will be created for the new premise. I want to transfer all previous premise's installation facts to new premise at this point of time .
2. For UCES, use "Transfer" radio button >perform Move Out and Move In.
Same, upon saving, the Move Out contract will be completed for the previous premise, and Move In contract will be created for the new premise. I want to transfer all previous premise's installation facts to new premise at this point of time .
Yes i would like implement this in both system.
Appreciate if you could enlighten how can I achieve this.
Thanks.

Re-downloading of films is currently only available in the US (due to film studio restrictions), and not all films can be re-downloaded there as not all film studios are allowing it.

Is it legal to request old versions of Oracle software?

Hi all,
I recently purchased Steve Adams' book Oracle 8i Internal Services.
On the authors website (www.ixora.com.au/scripts) there are scripts which are to be run
in conjunction with the text.
I have done this with 10 XE but it doesn't appear to work so well. On the database
forum I requested (for the princely sum of €5 (for postage and trouble - not for the
product itself)) that I be sent a CD if some kind soul had one lying around.
I was then informed that this was illegal - I did put "as long as it's legal and above board
and all that" in my original request.
I wish to emphasise that I am doing this to learn - I am not trying to do anything illegal and/or
that would be a breach of Oracle's software licencing terms.
Can any learned person clarifiy if it is acceptable to obtain old versions of Oracle's software
in this manner?
TIA and rgs,
Paul...

I also believe it is illegal and you have to get the software directly from Oracle or from an Oracle Partner -- You could contact your Oracle Sales representative to confirm.
If you have an access to My Oracle Support (MOS) website and a valid CSI number, you could try to log a SR and ask Oracle Support the Media Pack (though I believe you will be requested to use another version since Oracle8i is no longer supported).

PeopleSoft Tools 7.62 and 7.63 upgrade - Request for Media/downloads

Greetings:
For reasons that are beyond the space here to write I need to re-install a legacy HRMS 7.5 on Tools 7.63.
I have the original media for 7.52.
What I don't have are the tools upgrades and patches.
So I am hoping some kind soul out there has some PSoft 7.5 files or media stashed away and would be willing to share.
I don't think this is an untoward activity because we have licenses and Oracle no longer supports the app.
If you have such files please contact me.
Quick answers to the most frequent follow-ups:
No, Oracle won't help, they don't recognize pre-8.0 apps
No, I don't have time to upgrade to an 9.1 app due to customizations in the 7.5
Yes, this is a production system
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this request
Rick

Rick, you can request Tools 7.63 version using My Oracle Support - you will need your customer’s Support Identifier in order to open a non-technical service request. Once you have you service request Oracle will provide you the files.
