Juggling 2 copies of Safari on one machine

Howdy
I need to run a second copy of Safari in Rosetta mode on my machine in order to use company VPN.
Is there any way to setup a second set of prefs (home page, etc) for the Rosetta copy?
Otherwise, the two share.
Lastly, how can I set the native version to be my default browser? Sometimes my machine uses the Rosetta version.
Thanks for any and all help

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussion
Theoretically, you could have a duplicate set of Safari Preferences, Bookmarks etc. Practically, you would need to manually move files in and out of the Library depending on which version of Safari you used.
If you haven't done so already, create a second copy of Safari:
Go to your Application folder, single-click on Safari.app, then  Key + D to create a duplicate copy.
For the duplicate,  Key + I to open the Info panel, checking Rosetta. Then drag the revised Safari app to the Dock, positioning it apart from the regular Safari app (running natively).
Then, it's just a matter of which version you want to use. Both will update the same Safari folder and use the same preference file. To make the Intel version your native browser, go to Safari Preferences>General>Default Web Browser. Click on the drop down menu and select "select". On the ensuing panel, navigate to the original Safari.app.

Need to run multiple copies of portal on one machine

This is a little involved to explain so I'll try to be clear.
Right now we have multiple developers working on our single copy of our portal
running on one machine at another location. No good can come of this and much
bad has already happened.
What we need is to be able to run different copies of our portal on different
ports on that same machine. Making a copy of the domain, changing the port and
java.io.tmpdir just confuses the first server started when the second one goes
RUNNING. Changing the Web Application name doesn't help either.
It looks like it's only our stuff that gets cornfused when I set up multiple servers
(user_projects/someDomain, user_projects/someDomain2) or multiple Web Apps (someDomain/beaApps/portalApp/webApp1,
someDomain/beaApps/portalApp/webApp2) since I can log into the console just fine.
The Big Idea is that we need each developer to have their own sandbox to play
in along with a demo/test copy of our software.
I've dug through the BEA docs and these news groups and have not found anything
that directly pertains to our situation. The BEA docs are particularly thin on
information pertaining to dealing with more than one developer or deploying to
remote machines.
Here are some of the particulars and constraints of our setup.
We are running WebLogic Platform 7.0.0.0 on a Solaris box at another physical
location. All access is via network. We have no root access for a variety of
reasons.
Oracle is used for our JDBC. No Pointbase.
Our WebApp has a servlet as the starting point.
We deploy an exploded version of our servlet and JSPs for convenience.
We edit and compile our java source on Windows boxes and FTP the .class and .jsp
files up to their proper places on the server.
Naturally, the ideal solution would be to have more than one machine for a server.
Right now we don't have that option.
Thanks for any help that you can give,
Jon Davis

Travis,
We tried something very similar to that. We're using WebLogic Platform 7.0.
We only have one login on this Solaris box.
I copied our domain (${HOME}/bea/user_projects/somePortal) to another directory
(${HOME}/bea/user_projects/somePortal-devel) and changed the relevant XML files
with regards to ports and installation directories.
Maybe the UID that each server runs as is the difference........
Maybe an earlier version of the products are more tolerant of this and what we're
experiencing is a "feature".
At least I know that my initial approach wasn't such a bad idea :)
Thanks,
Jon

Jon,
We do this with very little issues. I’ll take a stab at putting this
into words.
I suggest that you have the developers run their own instance from their
own Solaris
user home directory. So in /home/travis make a directory bea/app (/home/travis/bea/app)
in the bea/app directory copy the applications, bin, StartPortal.sh,
StopPortal.sh,
and config directory from your current application, probably /opt/bea/wlportal4.0/.
Then make sure that your scripts (in the developers home directory)
all reference
jar files in the /opt/bea/{wlportal4.0 and wlserver6.1} directory's.
Next go
through the /home/travis/bea/app/config/portalDomain/{config.xml & *.sh},
/home/travis/bea/app/bin/unix/*.sh,
and /home/travis/bea/app/application/portalDomain/{applicationDir}/WEB-INF/web.xml
and start and stop scripts to change all “application” directory references
to
relative pathing from the /home/travis/app/bea directory also change
all references
of the 7501 and 7502 ports to another port for each developer.
Hope this is readable and helps

Can I have two versions of Safari on one machine?

The question first, then the explanation for the question: Can I have both Safari 5 and Safari 6 on my machine and run them at the same time?
I hate Safari 6 & 7 because they combine the search and URL into one bar, which really annoys me. It requires an extra step when I type in the direct URL I want, because instead of returning the URL, it goes to a search page, and then I have to click the site I want. Annoying. So I have not upgraded from Safari 5 on my iMac, which I use nearly all the time. I have tried Firefox because it still has the search and URL boxes separate, but I also like the little orange arrow in Safari 5 that quickly takes me back to my original search when I've ended up on rabbit trails in my searching and I want to go back to where I was -- Firefox does not have this. (I dislike Firefox in general, anyway.)
However, now I'm finding that some websites are beginning to warn me that my browser (Safari 5) is too old and may not work properly. Now I have found a site for which indeed that is true -- a site I regularly use for my job, and a company which says they will no longer offer support for issues on Safari 5. One screen is split into two, and I could always scroll the two sides separately, but after an update to the site, now they will not scroll separately. I have a MacBook Air, which I rarely use, and tested the same page on Safari 6 -- it works on Safari 6. Thus, the company will refuse to help me and tell me to just update my browser.
I really like Safari, EXCEPT for the new versions' combined search/URL bar, so I want to keep using Safari 5. Thus, I want to know if I can have both Safari 5 and 6 on my machine at all, and if so, then I want to know if I can have them both open at the time, for example, if I give them different names (Safari 5 and Safari 6, rather than just Safari).
This is for my iMac, which is running Lion 10.7.5

>>I could not see this reply in Safari 5, neither by refreshing the page nor by clicking "Latest reply," which did nothing.
That's a very common issue with the software that runs these discussions, and usually nothing to do with the browser. Pasting a single character reply, often reveals the missing item(s); as does viewing the thread without signing in first.

10.6.8 introduces several problem with mail, on one machine doesn't start on another it can't be seen from Safari, is that normal?

I don't what's going on with 10.6.8
Mail is suffering several problems.
first of all, I made all the standard routines... permissions, etc.
1) on one machine it starts, the dock icon is bouncing endless, and even forcing the index rebuilt, doesn't help.
2) on another machine, mail is not recognized by Safari, it is not there it says (My fear is that is Safari the problem? Strange)...
Do you have any other issue with Mail?

I have reinstalled the combo update, last night... The Mail app works ok on one mac, but is isolated, so no other app can send to Mail.app any email content.
Here you have the snapshots.
and this is the info.
I don't know what to do more... Shall I fill a bug report?

To have more than one OracleAS on one machine

Hi!
I have installed on machines having Windows Server 2003 SP2, ~2.8 GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM, 76 GB HD the following:
On one machine, I installed Oracle Database 10.2.0. On the second machine, I installed OIM and an OracleAS. These installations constitute the project test environment.
Now, I am instructed to install a developer environment for the same project. As we expect for both environments low load and do have a small budget, we want to use the same two machines for the development environment.
I decided to create a second schema on the DB server for this purpose. Now, my question concerning the OracleAS:
Can I install on the OracleAS machine another OracleAS to be used in the developer environment? Is this reasonable, assuming that the hardware is capable to cope with both loads?
Thank you for your reply!

You have to be very careful to avoid port conflicts - other than that I can't see any reason why this should not work. I've had three AS installations running on the same linux box without too much trouble. I've never tried this on windows though.

Install Final Cut Stdio 2 on more than one machine?

Hi,
anyone knows if it'll be possible to install FCS2 on more than one machine? I have different macs (desktop, laptop) I'd like to install FCS2 on.
thanks.

Hi there,
legally you can only install 1 copy of FCS onto 1 desktop & 1 laptop. any more than that you need to but more copies.
as to the requirements of FCS2, check out apples FCS2 webpage for exact details but roughly, as it is a PRO app, it requires PRO machines (not mac minis, macbooks or any machine with an integrated graphics chip)
hope this helps

How to create two or more JVM in one machine ?

Hi to some background ,I want to invoke RMI call to a server ,and I have written the following client code ,that access a getCounter()to show the incremented static variables value ,each time calling the getCounter() will increment the static variable by 1.That code is deployed in the server.
PDOS_Remote_Interface service1 =(PDOS_Remote_Interface)Naming.lookup("rmi://x.xxx.xxx.xxx/REMOTE_SERVICE");
String s1= service1.sayHello();
int cont1 = service1.getCounter();
System.out.println(">>>>>> "+s1);
System.out.println(">>>>>> cont1 "+cont1);
PDOS_Remote_Interface service2 =(PDOS_Remote_Interface)Naming.lookup("rmi://y.yyy.yyy.yyy/REMOTE_SERVICE");
String s2= service2.sayHello();
int cont2 = service2.getCounter();
System.out.println(">>>>>> "+s2);
System.out.println(">>>>>> cont2 "+cont2);
This is working fine with even two different server (I mean in two physically different machine(x ip and y ip) ,there ip are different )
with following output :
Server Says Hai!
cont1 0
Server Says Hai!
cont2 0that is static variable is not shareing as they are in two different server
Now My problem:
I want to hit the one and only server ,In this case Service1 and Service2 are getting the remote instance from only one machine .And when I am doing that I am getting the static variable incremented ,That is following output
Server Says Hai!
cont1 0
Server Says Hai!
cont2 1Is this possible to create two JVM instance in a particular machine ..??
I mean I want the first output (both static variable shows 0)in second implementetion (using only one machine )???

Yes, but the naming service is only going to accept one registration for a given name.

How to handle sessions with two severs on one machine?

All,
I am having a problem with session cookies being overwritten when I host two apps on one machine running WebLogic 8.1 The apps are http://myserver:7300/app1 and http://myserver:7400/app2, and each runs in its own server.
Users will often access both apps at once, in two browser windows. If the windows are different threads in the same process, the sessions collide. For Internet Explorer, this isn't usually a problem since clicking on the shortcut multiple times launches different processes by default. Some browsers (Firefox, etc.) won't let you have two windows under different processes. Attempts to launch a second window 'detect' the existing process and appear to spawn a new thread. When this happens there appears to be no way for the users to use both apps at once.
I know this is happening because of the way session cookies are stored in the browser process' memory. The session cookies appear to me to be 'keyed' by the host name or ip address of the server. Does anyone know of a setting in WebLogic so that this 'key' includes the port or context root? Is this even something which can be controlled on the server side?
Thanks for any help,
Brian

Not quite sure what your intent is, but if you want to avoid a clash how
about giving each application a different default session cookie name.

Have multiple iTunes libraries on one machine?

Hi,
I want to have multiple iTunes libraries on one machine (with two different hard drives, internal fore mp3s and external for AAC files). One library is composed of mp3s for an iPod, I want the other library to have AAC audio files for burning CDs. I would rather the libraries not be mixed.
I have read the article (#301748) for migrating an iTunes library and am preparing to migrate one of the libraries on to a external hard drive.
I have read about using Libra to maintain two different libraries on one machine. I was wondering if anyone does this and if they have encountered any problems? Is there a better solution?
Thank you,
TPK

It's one thing to want two music libraries on one machine and another to want two music libraries on one user account. For the latter, here's what I've done.
I created folders in my iTunes folder called, say, Main Library Folder and Second Library Folder. (These could be anywhere you find convenient.) I dragged my regular iTunes Library file into the Main Library Folder. Then I opened iTunes and created my second music library. When I finished that, I closed iTunes and dragged the just-created iTunes Library file into the Second Library Folder.
If I want to use my main iTunes library, before opening iTunes I drag an alias (Cmmd-Option-drag) of the iTunes Library file from the Main Library Folder into the iTunes folder. Then, when I open iTunes, iTunes reads my main library file. And of course, it works the same way for the second library.
Of course, you could just shuffle the actual library files into position in the iTunes folder from their holding areas, but I strongly preferred to get myself into the habit of relying on aliases, so I could leave the actual library file alone in their respective folders. You most definitely would not want to accidentally overwrite one of your iTunes Library files.
I'm sure one of the shareware products would do a more elegant job, but this just shows you that it's not a difficult process.
The alternative is to set up separate user accounts to access different libraries on the same machine. This has real benefits and, to me, should be the first option one considers. It's easier on the brain, as it sticks to iTunes' one-user-one-library model, and there's absolutely no risk of getting libraries confused. Fast User Switching on the Mac makes going back and forth between accounts easy. But if you really want to avoid using different accounts, and it's only you that has to keep things straight, the approach of jumping back and forth between different libraries in the same user account should be OK.

Multiple version of Java on one machine

Is it possible to have multiple versions of Java co-exist on the same XP Pro machine?
Here is our scenario: we have apps that use Java 1.5, but we have one critical app that doesn't support that version yet. It has to use the 1.4 version. Is there a way to allow both versions to exist and be usable for their respective apps? If so, how?
Thank you.

I can't, however it's never a good idea to have
multiple versions of Java on one machine. Try and
standardise if possible. If OP used JAVA_HOME as you
often suggest, then he would be knackered wouldn't
he? JAVA_HOME can only point to one JDK. Your
advice is conflicting kaj.Nope. JAVA_HOME should always be defined in the start script/file for a java application, so it's not set per system. It's very common that companies have applications that requires different JDK/JRE versions, and it's usually very expensive to upgrade all applications (if it's possible at all). You can of course also alter the PATH variable if you want to in the script.

iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer

Two copies of iTunes on one computer?

A pretty stupid problem, but I can't figure it out. It appears that there are two copies of iTunes on one of our computers--or at least, iTunes somehow displaying two different profiles. If I have "start iTunes automatically" checked, when I connect the iPod, iTunes opens, and it shows the location of the Library file as on the workstation's local HD. Conversely, if I use the shortcut icon on the desktop to open iTunes, it points to a Library location on a network shared drive (which is where I want it to be).
I cannot for the life of me figure out where the two copies, if they exist, of the iTunes.exe file are located. The Properties for the shortcut iTunes icon is grayed out in the "find Target" box. I can find one copy of iTunes in the local c:\Programs\iTunes folder. Control Panel Add/Remove Programs list shows only one iTunes program. Is there any way to figure this out?

It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones. I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

I have two iMac 24" how can i run them as one machine

im trying to figure out how to connect my two 24" to opertar as one machine if any one has the answer please help thanks

Are you referring to use the display of one with the other Mac or are you referring to use the hardware of both computers into one?
If you are referring to this first option, you have to use an application like ScreenRecycler, because only 27-inch iMacs and iMacs with Thunderbolt can be used as an external display officially.
If you are referring to my last option, you can't do it
