Actually, after scouring the web, I see that RogueAmoeba also has a free utility called LineIn which simply sends the audio in to the audio out and doesn't interfere with other programs like iTunes!
On the other hand, after downloading and trying it, there is a noticeable latency between what goes in and what comes out.
The latency is in the computer, not the software. Most of the latency is in the A/D and D/A conversion.
You need to connect the analog input to the analog output directly to get zero latency.

DDL for DimTime
CREATE TABLE DimTime(
TimeID NUMBER(6) PRIMARY KEY,
Year NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
Season VARCHAR2(20));
I have the following analysis request to perform on this data mart:
Top 5 clients by value of ticket sale for each season
For this requirement I came up with the following query:
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT FacTIC.ClientID, DimCLI.Name, SUM(SumtotalAmount) SumTotalAmount, DimTIM.Season
FROM FactTicketPurchase FacTIC, DimClient DimCLI, DimTime DimTIM
WHERE FacTIC.ClientID = DimCLI.ClientID
AND FacTIC.TimeID = DimTIM.TimeID
AND Season = 'Spring' AND Year = 2010
GROUP BY Season, FacTIC.ClientID, DimCLI.Name
ORDER BY Season ASC, SumTotalAmount DESC)
WHERE rownum <=5;
As you can see, in line 06 of the above query, I am explicitly specifying the season for the query to return.
However what I would like to do is just one query that could autocratically go through the seasons and years available in the time dimension in a fashion similar to a FOR-EACH statement. This way, if we get more years added to the time dimension, we wouldn't have to amend the query.
Is this possible?
Regards,
P.I think I fixed it!
The trick was to look into the r_num value. As soon as I added it to my query I started to see how r_num was being calculated and I realised that I had to add Season to my partition, right after Year.
SELECT Year, Season, TotalAmount, Name
FROM (
SELECT DimCLI.Name
, DimTIM.Year
, DIMTIM.Season
, SUM(FacTIC.SumTotalAmount) TotalAmount
, RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY Year, Season
ORDER BY SUM(FacTIC.SumTotalAmount) DESC
) AS r_num
FROM FactTicketPurchase FacTIC
, DimClient DimCLI
, DimTime DimTIM
WHERE FacTIC.ClientID = DimCLI.ClientID
AND FacTIC.TimeID = DimTIM.TimeID
GROUP BY DimTIM.Year
, DimTIM.Season
, DimCLI.Name
WHERE r_num <= 5 -- Need to amend this line on my data sample to show 2 rows.
ORDER BY Year, Season, TotalAmount DESC;
Looking at my data sample, I got the following:

I have some days ago started updating of Firefox for Mac OS 10.6.8 under Help but it is paused and the upgrading don´t continue when i start again
Hi Ryan,
I managed to find this reference specifically for restoring on Snow Leopard:
If you are using Mac OS X Snow Leopard, start your computer from the installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility.
Now that was copied from this more comprehensive reference:
Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac
You may also find this article helpful:
http://pondini.org/TM/14.html
Finally, I cannot see why Time Machine would leave out your playlists and ratings? Think about it. Why would Time Machine specifically copy everything BUT your playlists and ratings? Ryan, what are your options? I would have to ask you this: Are you certain that you properly did the sync? That is another/different forum altogether: Using iPhone /see subsection on Syncing.
Either way...
Best Regards,
mm
EDIT: For whatever reason I tried three times to edit out one of the redundent adjectives... either different or another which preceeds the word forum, but the advanced editor would (apparently NOT allow me to do so). I hope that it doesn't render without any adjective before the word forum. -
Is there a way to have iCloud stream into a reference iPhoto library on Mac?
I would like to use iColud to get photos from my iPhone onto my Mac. But, from what I have read, even if you set up your iPhoto library as a referenced library, iCloud imports photos directly into the library rather than storing them on disk as indiviudal and having iPhoto reference them like your other photos. Is this correct, and if so, is there any way around it?
If you are both using the same iCloud account all your calendars will appear on all your devices.
If you are using separate iCloud accounts each of you should share the required calendars privately so the other can subscribe. Please see this page:
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9479
and expand 'Share a private calendar or reminder list with specific people'. -

Is there a way to change the default export filetype in Illustrator CS4 for Mac OSx
Hi,
I do a significant amount of exporting from Illustrator and always need my images exported as JPG. The default filetype for exporting in CS4 (for mac) is PNG, and I can't find a way to change this. Since I always want to export as JPG, I feel like I should be able to set that as a default.
Am I missing something? How can I change this default?
Thanks,

Record the action then go to file export select jpeg and then the quality etc and then exort and stop recording the action give it a keyboard shortcut. -
Is there a way to get iPhoto back after updating to photos beta for mac?
I recently purchased a new macbook air. I wanna transfer all my photos from my current iMac to my new laptop. I have several problems though. I did the beta program and i'm running 10.10.3 on my iMac. as a part of having 10.10. 3, you get the photos beta and no longer get access to iPhoto. i see no way of backing up your photos to an external HD using that program. There's nothing online regarding the matter either. I don't think this beta of 10.10.3 is very good either. I want to use the regular 10.10. 2. That's why i don't simply just use Time Machine. Does anyone have any tips?
i see no way of backing up your photos to an external HD using that program.
You do it exactly the same way as you do with iPhoto.
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
The Photos beta does nothing to iPhoto. It coexists with it. Did you ever have iPhoto on the machine?
The only way to roll back an update when you don't have a back up is to erase the disk and start over. -

I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever. -
Is there a way to have multiple users collaborate in lightroom from different computers
Hello,
First post... Be gentle. I've been using lightroom for my personal photography since I switched to digital photography several years back. I'm currently using a Canon 5DIII, lightroom 5, running on a recent generation IMAC and it all works together very intuitively. I've tried using a HP laptop in the past when traveling but I find that I have problems when trying to sync up the images between the laptop and the IMAC and seem to always lose something or lose my image tweaks or something... so I've since returned to just waiting until I return from the trips to tweak my photos on the imac.
Ok The question: I've recently started a outdoor gear review site Rugged Individual and as you will see if you check out the site, I'm having a hard time with photo management between all the different authors, and so have some horrible stock pics on the site. My dream is to be able to have all the collaborating writers and photographers manage the images for their reviews in Lightroom or in a way that I could centrally access them from lightroom. This would make tweaking the images to look consistent SOOOOO much easier.
Is there a way to have 10 or more individuals use the same lighroom database? There would be a mix of different OS's.
I've searched the forums but haven't figured out how to do this effectively. If there is another product that could be added to lightroom, or a cloud solution that lighroom could leverage, I would be very interested in trying it out.
I appreciate your help.
(Putting on asbestos underwear)
Heath DieckertNo need for apprehension Heath.
Unfortunately Lightroom does have certain limitations:
A particular catalog can only be accessed by one instance of Lightroom at one time.
(ie it is not designed for multiple simultaneous access.);
As far as I am aware a catalog cannot be accessed remotely although images can be.
Victoria Brampton has a solution using Dropbox where both the images and the catalog are stored on Dropbox.
Individual users download the catalog to thier workstation and work on images etc and then shut down Lightroom and update the catalog back to Dropbox.
No one else should acessing the catalog or images while one user is using the catalog and images otherwise a conflict will arise and someones work will be erased.
Disclaimer: this sort of setup is NOT supported by Adobe and is not risk free (for more reasons than I have elaborated).

RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the samemachine
Sean,
I mean I am always connecting to the nodemgr of the 2nd environment
successfully. Only when I run the client part of the application that I know
is up, I get a response from the Name Server that it is actually the first
IP address.
I checked again. I defenitely have FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to IP:5004, in my
case, and not the hostname. I don't have FORTE_LOCATIONS set any where. the
NS_ADDRESS for env2 has only 1 IP address associated with it. My Forte
Control Panel on the client, and hence the NS address has only one entry.
I tried going into escript like you said, and the name service still thinks
it is IP1.

Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same

Hmmmm? That is a little odd! Let me rehash what I think you are saying.
You now have two environments each with their own name service with
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to a different IP:Port combination. For example you
are doing the steps:
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.1:5000
start the nodemgr for env 1
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.2:5000
start the nodemgr for env 2
Now when you start a client you are always getting the address for env 1
back from the nodemgr. I assume you actually mean the name service? Or, do
you mean you are always connecting to the nodemgr & name service for env
1?
If the first scenario is the case and you are connecting to the nodemgr
for
env 2 but getting back IP's for services listening on the card for env 1 I
would ask you what you are setting the FORTE_LOCATIONS value to before you
start each service. If you are not setting it or are using the host name
it
will register using the IP for the primary network card associated with
the
machine name and I am again assuming that this is env 1. You need to set
the FORTE_LOCATIONS variable to 255.255.255.2:0 (based on the steps above)
before starting your services.
If the second scenario is the case I would have you check what the
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS is set to before you start up the client. Once again it
must be the IP:Port combination not host:port combination if you want to
get
anything other than the primary card.
I would also suggest that you do the following. After everything is up
and
running execute the following commands:
escript -fns "ip for env1":port
findsub nameservice
showpart
What you should see is everything currently registered under the name
service. It will have the name and any "locations" (IP and port) that it
is
registered as listening on. I would look for the nodemgr and see where it
has advertised itself. I would then look for any services you expect to
be
registered there and also verify where the have advertised themselves. If
there are multiple locations listed for any one service, the client will
use
the first one in the list.
Do the same for env 2.

Hello Venkat,
I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forteis
doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for examplemachine1:5000.
You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot addressinstead
for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name
service
out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same machine
My requirement is that my second card serves as best case performance
testing piece. This eliminates the network completely. We went one step
ahead and created a new enviromnent for the second card. Whatever I do,
the
nodemgr is returning back the IP address of the first card, even thoughmy
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS does not have the first card in the picture any where.
I think Forte is doing a host look up and returning the first IP address
it
finds, as opposed to returning the IP address specified in theenvironment
variable FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. Is there a way to trick it?

Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same

OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses areknown
to
the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always usethe
first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the
first
address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move onto
the
second.
Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with theclient
failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the firstentry
fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it
retries
the
first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do nothave
a
bug number on it.
With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail
over
on
the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewalland
one
to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine whenthe
failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to loadbalance
across the network cards you could have the environment manager listenon
both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both
cards.
For
example:
set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
environment
manager
set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
port)
and start partition one
set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
and so on....
In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on bothcards
but
each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
request
comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
partitions
to cards based on expected load.
Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

Sean,
Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specificin
my
question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
server
on both the network cards.
I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cardsand
actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, followingyour
advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
noticed.
I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
FORTE_LOCATION
to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses
for
both
cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
tried
all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected onthe
second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds
with
a
proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
environment?

Venkat,
Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you
set
the
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the
name
service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multipleip:port
combinations.
We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at
to
get
around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However,
from
reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the nameservice
to
advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using
Forte
3G2.

Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A nameserver
can
only listen on one port.
To implement this scheme you will have to write a proxy service (insome

including perhaps forte) which listens on the well-known port on the
second card, reads requests, then forwards them to the realnameservice
(wkp on the first card), and forwards replies back. This is not
trivial, but some firewall toolkit vendors supply stub code to write

I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forte is
doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for example machine1:5000.
You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot address instead
for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name service
out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same machine
My requirement is that my second card serves as best case performance
testing piece. This eliminates the network completely. We went one step
ahead and created a new enviromnent for the second card. Whatever I do, the
nodemgr is returning back the IP address of the first card, even though my
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS does not have the first card in the picture any where.
I think Forte is doing a host look up and returning the first IP address it
finds, as opposed to returning the IP address specified in the environment
variable FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. Is there a way to trick it?

Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same

OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses are known
to
the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always use the
first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the first
address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move on to
the
second.
Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with the client
failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the first entry
fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it retries
the
first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do not have a
bug number on it.
With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail over
on
the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewall and
one
to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine when the
failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to load balance
across the network cards you could have the environment manager listen on
both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both cards.
For
example:
set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
environment
manager
set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
port)
and start partition one
set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
and so on....
In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on both cards
but
each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
request
comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
partitions
to cards based on expected load.
Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

Sean,
Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specific in
my
question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
server
on both the network cards.
I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cards and
actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, following your
advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
noticed.
I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
FORTE_LOCATION
to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses for
both
cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
tried
all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected on the
second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds with a
proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
environment?
Thanks

Venkat,
Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you setthe
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the name
service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multiple ip:port
combinations.
We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at toget
around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However, from
reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the name serviceto
advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using Forte
3G2.

Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A name server
can
only listen on one port.

Searchable thread archive <URL:http://pinehurst.sageit.com/listarchive/>Hmmmm? That is a little odd! Let me rehash what I think you are saying.
You now have two environments each with their own name service with
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to a different IP:Port combination. For example you
are doing the steps:
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.1:5000
start the nodemgr for env 1
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.2:5000
start the nodemgr for env 2
Now when you start a client you are always getting the address for env 1
back from the nodemgr. I assume you actually mean the name service? Or, do
you mean you are always connecting to the nodemgr & name service for env 1?
If the first scenario is the case and you are connecting to the nodemgr for
env 2 but getting back IP's for services listening on the card for env 1 I
would ask you what you are setting the FORTE_LOCATIONS value to before you
start each service. If you are not setting it or are using the host name it
will register using the IP for the primary network card associated with the
machine name and I am again assuming that this is env 1. You need to set
the FORTE_LOCATIONS variable to 255.255.255.2:0 (based on the steps above)
before starting your services.
If the second scenario is the case I would have you check what the
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS is set to before you start up the client. Once again it
must be the IP:Port combination not host:port combination if you want to get
anything other than the primary card.
I would also suggest that you do the following. After everything is up and
running execute the following commands:
escript -fns "ip for env1":port
findsub nameservice
showpart
What you should see is everything currently registered under the name
service. It will have the name and any "locations" (IP and port) that it is
registered as listening on. I would look for the nodemgr and see where it
has advertised itself. I would then look for any services you expect to be
registered there and also verify where the have advertised themselves. If
there are multiple locations listed for any one service, the client will use
the first one in the list.
Do the same for env 2.
