Is it possible to make the slave harddrive store the desktop?

I have a 10 gig master hard drive and an 80 gig slave. I could back up all my files and re-install OSX, but I was wondering if there was a way to make everything but the OS run off of the slave, including the desktop.
thanks

There's a desktop folder for each user account on every Mac volume (a disk, or a partition on a partitioned disk, is a volume). That folder, which is invisble in the Finder, contains all the items on that volume that are displayed on that user's desktop when that volume is mounted on the Mac. If there are two or more mounted volumes, the items on that user's desktop for each volume are displayed together, as though the contents of each volume's user desktop folder were on a transparent layer, and all the layers were overlaid on top of each other. Eject or unmount a volume, and whatever is in the user's desktop folder on that volume disappears from view on the desktop, along with that volume's own icon.
Each volume's desktop folder (or folders, if more than one user has access to the volume) is (or are) particular to that volume and part of its Finder-level folder structure, even though they don't appear as folder in the Finder. This is why you can't move such folders to any other volume, even though you can freely copy the contents of each one to any other volume's desktop.

    How do I find in the "Mac App Store" the authorize --my computer to do an upgrade on the newest imovie in Maverick? MacBook Pro 15' 10.9.2. Thank you!

    He shouldn't have done that. Now you have a pirated version of iMovie on your Mac that you will never be able to update. The MAS Terms of Use do not allow that type of sharing. His Apple ID is encoded in the copy on your Mac and you can't change that.
    Legally you should delete the app.
    Your Mac should have come with the iLife apps pre-installed, why did he do that?

  • FM9: Possible to make "fit window to page" the default?

    I'm using FM9, structured, on Windows 7.  (My company recently upgraded from FM7.0.)  In FM 7.0, my documents seemed to remember the last zoom I had set, and if I saved them having set "Fit Window to Page", the next time I opened the document that setting would be in effect.
    This doesn't seem to be the case with FM9. Every time I open a document, its window fills the screen, and I need to manually fit the page to my preferred zoom (100 or 90%) from the Zoom status bar menu.  There are a lot of options for tweaking preferences for windows - I have not selected to open documents as tabs, for example - and I wonder whether a preference setting is preventing the fit window to page setting from being remembered per document, or whether there is any other way I can make that the default for opening documents.
    Thanks very much for your help.
    -- garyZ

    Still struggling with this, and the possible confounding factors, like differnet interface preference settings.  Some online research I've done seems to point to this being a problem in FM9, that is, setting a default zoom and fit for all documents.  There are some third-party plugins that say they can do this... but not for FM9.  So maybe the answer is "upgrade to FM 10", but that isn't an option for my department at this time.
    Further symptoms:
    - If I open all chapters in a book together in a single tabbed window, and explicitly set the first document to Fit Window to Page, I get what I want for that document, but as soon as I choose another chapter in anotehr tab, the window widens (I show a single page only), leaving a lot of gray empty window space.  I can explicitly set THAT document to Fit Window to Page, but when I click back on the first chapter I was working on, it opens wide; it has lost the Fit Window to Page I originally set for it.  Working that way, any time I change tabs, and frequently when I do operations like changing the conditional text that shows, the window containing all the tabs widens.  I would like to prevent that if possible.
    - Even when working on individual chapters, if I set one to Fit Window to Page (a setting that held, if I subsequently saved the document, in FM7) the setting is not (consistently, it seems) remembered, and the next time I open the single chapter, the window opens wide, or maximized (23" wide monitor) as if it is trying to give me a two-page view, but I'm only working with one page views (my preference because it's what I'm used to).
    - Regardless of how the files open individually (sometimes the zoom and fit seems to hold), when I open a book file, then use Open All Files In Book (having set the interface to NOT open all the files as tabs in a single window), I get this bizarre Time Tunnel effect whereby each chapter opens in a window that fits within the bounds of the previous chapter.  If the first chapter opens correctly, say 100% zoom and Fit Window to Page, the second opens at 100% zoom, but fits in the first, the third within the second, and if the book has enough chapters, the last chapters are vertically tiny, not showing more than a line or two of text.  So I need to manually rearrange and re-fit them all before I work on them.  What a pain.
    I have to say, the FM9 interface is awfully clunky.  I don't know if it's implemented (partly) using Flash or what, but whole book operations like opening or closing all files, saving a book as PDF, sometimes even just switching the conditional text that is shown generally result in a frozen screen and a title bar that indicates "not responding" for a couple of minutes before FM9 gets it's act together and returns (often with windows resized and zoomed).  It can be pretty frustrating to work with, and can really slow me down.
    I'm using structured FM, but not DITA - in house designed EDD, probably based on docbook, but I'm not sure.  FM9 is completely updated with available patches.
    I've tried playing with the different Interface Preferences, to see if that helps - variously having FM open files as tabs to share the same large tabbed window, or turning that off to have them open as individual files in individual windows.  I still cannot get Fit Window to Page to hold consistently.  It's a relatively minor nit, but it is annoying, and gobbles extra time for me to keep resetting the working environment as I like it.  I have set up a workspace for myself, but this doesn't seem to include the zoom settings, only the various palettes/panels and their states and positions.
    If anyone knows of or discovers a fix to this issue, your help would be much appreciated.

  • Is it possible to make an effect over all the finished film cuts etc

    I have almost finished a project, i like the way it is but would like to soften the overall feel of the film.
    Is there a way to place an effect over all the edits etc?
    Or do i have to export the finished movie and put that to a new project sequence?
    If so what is the best setting to export so that when i load back again i don't loose any quality?
    Thanks Gee

    Try this step by step. It will help you understand better exactly what happens when you nest a sequence inside another sequence.
    •Create a new sequence (File > New > Sequence). You will get a new timeline. (Make sure you create it with the same sequence settings as your original sequence ... see FCE > Easy Setup).
    •Then drag your original sequence from the Browser onto the new sequence timeline. This nests your original sequence inside the new sequence.
    •Then, +in the new sequence,+ apply whatever filters/effects you want to the original sequence.
    In effect, when you nest sequences you can treat the nested sequence(s) as if they were plain old clips. It's a cool trick.

  • Is it possible to make a drill up to the inmediate superior level

    Hello Gurus:
    When I create an answer report I get the natural Drill down by clicking the desired member. On the bottom part of the report I get a "Return" link wich take me to the begging of the report.
    Is it posible to return to just one level instead of returning to the beggining of the report?

    When you drill down two levels, you will get two links, "Back," and "Return."
    "Return" will always take you back to the highest level as you stated, but "Back" will take you one level up. Is that what you are looking for and mean?

  • What is the datatype to store the value of variable of  UTL_HTTP.resp

    Hello,
    I am using Oracle 11g R2 SOE.
    I have table Called SMS consists of two columns (TEXT , RESPONSE) to store the value of variable of type UTL_HTTP.resp
    the datatype of TEXT column is varchar2.
    What should be the datatype of the column RESPONSE that is supposed to store the value of a variable of type UTL_HTTP.resp ????
    Please see the following example if it was not clear;
    Declare
      l_url2 SMS.RESPONSE%TYPE;
      l_http_request2   UTL_HTTP.req;
      l_http_response2  UTL_HTTP.resp;

      l_http_response2 := UTL_HTTP.get_response(l_http_request2);
      insert into SMS (text,response) values (l_url2,l_http_response2);
      UTL_HTTP.end_response(l_http_response2);

    Fatehutl_http.resp is a record type Its defined like this
    TYPE resp IS RECORD (
       status_code    PLS_INTEGER,
       reason_phrase  VARCHAR2(256),
       http_version   VARCHAR2(64));http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/u_http.htm#i1012713
    I would suggest in your table you split the RESPONSE column into 3 different column and store the fields STATUS_CODE, REASON_PHARSE and HTTP_VERSION accordingly.
