Launch Pad Duplicates????

So I reinstalled StarCraft 2 the other day after a recient HD failure. Odd thing is while the game all works correctly on the Launch Pad there are duplicates everywhere. I condenced them all down to a single folder and when I click on them nothing hapens. It pops up on the dock and then goes away. Ive posted a pic to show what I mean.
These apps persay dont do anything but take up space. Nothing gets rid of them. I cant fond them in my application folder and im not aware of any terminal command lines that will weed out duplicates like this. Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I have the exact same issue with the duplicated SC2 icons - after running Starcraft for the first time, they just appeared.
Since all items showing up in the Launchpad come from the Applications folder, I looked under \ ~/Applications/Starcraft and found the 'versions' package. By looking at its contents, I noticed the number of "Base####" folders was the same as the number of SC2 icons in the Starcraft folder in Launchpad. And each Base#### folder contains a SC2.app file.
Clicking this file yields the same effect as clicing one of the SC2 icons in [...] Launchpad: shows in dock but then nothing.
I feel tempted to say that Blizzard has failed to properly acknowledge the Launchpad updating itself with all the *.app files, even the ones inside packages, but need to be proven so. Also, I am not sure if there is anyway to remove that Versions package, or its contents. Guess i'm going to search what info is there on blizzard's side.
Best,
LA05

Launch pad - duplicate icon apps

When I open the launch pad, there are duplicate apps (the font book, DVD player, etc) they are all the ones that came with the software. How do I get rid of the duplicates? I tried selecting one until it was "shaking", but no X show up to delete it.

The launchpad displays an icon for each app or alias it finds anywhere on the system. You need to find the app/alias duplicates and delete them--simply putting them in the trash doesn't work for launchpad finds them there, too.
After they are trashed and the trash emptied you can open launch pad and when clicking on the icon representing the deleted app/app alias it will show a question mark. Drag it to the trash and it is gone.

How do get rid of duplicate ppc apps on launch pad?

How do get rid of duplicate ppc apps on launch pad?

since they are ppc apps and cannot be used in lion, delete them and they will be removed from launchpad. or if you just cant bare to delete that copy of appleworks, move it out of the applications folder and it will no longer appear

Duplicate Icons in launch Pad

In Launch Pad - on my iMac 24 - I have duplicate icons for Bluetooth File Share, Activity monitor, Airport utility and others. How do I get rid of the duplicates? They do not go to the trash. This is not happening on my MacBookAir.

I had a look too and couldn't find anything so started a wider internet search and there is apparently a way of resetting the launchpad, which from reading is closely related to the Dock.
I have pasted the link below but cannot verify it is a safe workaround because I have not got the necessary understanding of Terminal to execute it...
http://haiteq.com/2011/07/07/quick-tip-force-os-x-lion-to-reload-the-launchpads- contents/
I came to the page above through:
http://www.tuaw.com/2011/07/21/how-to-refresh-os-x-lions-launchpad-contents/
If anyone having the same problems as us knows what they are doing with Terminal and tries this please let me know how to do it. I tried typing a few things into terminal and just got nowhere.

How to remove an uninstalled app from launch pad

I just got mac os x yosemite and I uninstall a steam app but the icon from the game is still in launch pad I did uninstall steam trying to get rid of it. Please help!!!

Open the Applications folder - click the Applications folder icon in the Dock, then select the Open in Finder arrowbutton.
Examine the contents of that folder.
Pages normally resides in the folder named iWorks, but in LaunchPad it is not displayed that way.
If Pages has been duplicated, or an alias made for it, outside of the iWork folder, it will appear as a second instance of Pages in LaunchPad.
Remove the duplicate, meaning the one outside of the iWork folder.
Note -
• if the one outside the iWork folder is not an alias, compare the version numbers for it and the one in the iWork folder. Keep the one with the most recent version, be sure it is placed in the iWork folder.
• if the one in the iWork folder is an alias, replace it with the real app, the one outside that folder.

Refresh of Webi in BI Launch Pad : "Failed to connect to the olap source"

Dear all,
I have a Web Intelligence document based on a BEx Query (BICS connectivity via an OLAP Connection configured with SSO)
Behaviour :
in Web Intelligence Rich Client (2 tier and 3 tier) : refresh is OK
in BI Launch Pad : refresh is not OK :
What can be the reason ? In my opinion SSO to BW is working fine because :
refresh in Web Intelligence Rich Client is OK
refresh of an Analysis Application (Design Studio) based on the same OLAP connection is working fine in Design Studio and in BI Launch Pad
Do I miss something at server level ?

Many thanks for the update, but a little bit troubling.
On which SPs/Patch level is your SAP BI BusObjects System as well as SAP BW running?

Crystal report : Export to Text format from BI Launch pad

Hi,
We are facing issue in exporting the Crystal report to text format option from BI Launch pad view mode. Currently BI launch pad doesn’t support export to Text format option for crystal report in view mode. But export to text format option is feasible in schedule mode. But customer is not interested in exporting the reports through schedule mode.
Please advise, if we have any alternative way of exporting the crystal report to text format option from BI Launch pad.
Thanks,
Chinnu A

Hi Chinnu,
The question is better suited to be asked in the BI Platform space.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Error in viewing a flash snapshot of dashboard via BI Launch Pad

Hi,
We currently have a dashboard developed using Dashboard Design (v4.0, SP2). We generated a flash snapshot and imported the said swf file in BI Launch Pad. When viewed in BI Launch Pad, an error message appears:
"Could not connect to BusinessObjects server; Check your network connection. (XLS 000003)
Could not connect to BusinessObjects server; Check your network connection. (XLS 000003) The object with ID AdMOi,pfn9CjQaXTYnVr0o does not exist in the CMS or you do not have the right to access it."
When OK is clicked, the dashboard can be viewed but with some data missing from the dashboard snapshot.

I. Following are the best practices you should follow while migrating dashboards from Business Intelligence 4.0 Feature Pack 03 to Support Package 04:
Check the version of Dashboard Design and Business Intelligence where the dashboard was created.
It is recommended to have Dashboard Designer and Business Intelligence on the same patch (including Support Package and Patch).
Use LCM to upgrade the Dashboard. Check if all the dependencies are seen in LCM while migration.
If the UNX universe does not show up in the dependencies, include dependent UNX universe manually.　
After migration, if the destination is on Higher patch (i.e moving from Feature Pack 03 to Support Package 04), Open the dashboard using Dashboard Design (e.g. Support Package 04) and save back to BI platform (without any changes). Alternately, before migration you can re-save the Dashboard to BI platform using destination patch level of Dashboard designer (say Support Package 04 when moving from Feature Pack 03 to Support Package 04). Use LCM to promote Dashboard to destination.
II. Restart Dashboard Design Cache Server and Dashboard Design Processing Server.
Thanks,
Tejas Tamhane

Collaboration Launch Pad as iview in the Portal content

Hi friends,
i have the following problem. I configured the collaboration launch pad (real time collaboration) and it works fine.
I just don´t want to start the iview from the collaboration link next to the TREX search. Instead of that i need the iview with the user status and the possibility to start an instant message session within the portal content.
Does anyone know if it is possible and what is the name of the corresponding iview?
Thanks in advance
Michael

Hi Michael
Create an new iView (new from PAR => iView) and select the com.sap.netweaver.coll.shared.ui
Create a link in the iView to the contacts:
In the iView properties add in field "Path for Initially Displayed Folder": /alias/%3Cmycontacts%3E
and in field "Path for Start Uri": /alias/<mycontacts>
Hope this helps.
This worked, but I needed also to activate the Tool Area with activated CLP link. I didn't get it work without Tool Area.
Regards,
Stefan

Launch pad has question mark in icon and won't launch

Hello,
On my intel mac with lion the icon for launch pad has a question mark over it and wont launch. Also when I hit f4 it wont start launch pad. Any help would be appreciated.

Somehow you've managed to delete it.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

HT5548 I upgraded one of my programs and now the old and new both appear on launch pad, and I can't delete the old one. Is there a way I can do that?

I upgraded one of my programs and now the icons for both old and new appear on the launch pad. I don't need or want the old version to display, as it's been imported into the new one. I can't seem to figure out how to edit it off the launch pad.

Hi there,
More then likely, the old version was installed independently from the App Store. The article below goes over the process for removing these application.
OS X Lion: Install, update, and uninstall apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph4524
To uninstall other apps, drag the app to the Trash (the Trash is located at the end of the Dock), and then choose Finder > Empty Trash.If you change your mind, before emptying the Trash, select the app in the Trash, and then choose File > Put Back.Warning: When you empty the Trash, the app is permanently removed from your computer. If you have any files that you created with the app, you may not be able to open them.
Hope that helps,
Griff W.

How do you limit the content of Launch pad screens

How do you limit the content of Launch pad screens - mine is cluttered with many applications - which are all valid - but many are so raely used they are causing me to have two screes - I want one screen possibly half filled. Can anybody help...

I believe you need to manually delete them one at a time..
